Also in the last time I'm seeing often on an "apt-get dist-upgrade"
this:

W: Can't drop privileges for downloading as file
'/var/cache/apt/archives/partial/libpython3.5_3.5.1-6ubuntu2_amd64.deb'
couldn't be accessed by user '_apt'. - pkgAcquire::Run (13: Permission
denied)


The permissions of the directory are this:

root@ubuntu:~# stat /var/cache/apt/archives/partial | grep 'Access: ('
Access: (0700/drwx------)  Uid: (  113/    _apt)   Gid: (    0/    root)
