APT first drops all groups and then changes the effective user and group
id to the one for _apt, before attempting to

mkstemp("/var/cache/apt/archives/partial/.apt-acquire-privs-
test.XXXXXX")


to create a file. There must be some permission issue in some part of that 
tree, check your /, /var, /var/cache, /var/cache/apt, /var/cache/apt/archives 
directories as well - they must have the "executable" permission bit set for 
the "other" user such that _apt can traverse them and get to the "partial" 
directory.

** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete
