I've just got back to the office and updated the desktop with apt from a
terminal and get the same thing.
Here is a copy of the traceback
Preparing to unpack

The desktop does have a bunch of cifs shares but given that the laptop doesn't
I think that is a red herring. The cifs shares are all still working.
For what its worth here's the output of stat

Looks like a undeclared variable or mismatch in code versions.
