It's fixed after changing the source.list to my former mirror.

I looked for the solution to this myself some time ago, and found
somewhere something about a bug and that and bzip2 had to be installed
and then it worked without a hitch.

Hope that helps you.

I think that when your /var filled up, you were left with some partly
downloaded files in /var/lib/apt/lists/partial and apt is trying to use
those.


I assume you've freed up a lot of space under /var now. Can you delete
all the files uder that directory and try to update again? It is safe,
as the files will be downloaded again.


This leaves the question of why did /var fill up? Have you got a lot of
old deb files under /var/cache/apt/archives? These can be safely got rid
of with apt-get clean (unless you are keeping them for a reason). Also,
apt-get autoclean will prevent them being left in there after an
upgrade/install.

Switching backwards and forwards between mirrors may be avoided by using

You are right, I have cleared the .deb,

I guess I'd better set the cron to do the autoclean also.

Thanks all,
