Hi,

Thanks for reporting this issue.  This is likely to be a bug in APT (or
possibly in its interaction with dpkg), so I have CC'ed the relevant
maintainers.

@Yaroslav: Can you please provide your dpkg and apt logs to aid with the
debugging?  Last time we saw this issue, we were unable to reproduce it
due to lack of information.

Thanks,
~Niels
