[Bug 788732] Re: <type 'exceptions.IOError'>: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/cache/apt/archives/lock'

[Sebastian Heinlein]

Sorry, it seems that your system is broken. Did you have an harddrive
error? Did you delete some files in /var/cache/apt/archive manually?
Basically you have to create the file /var/cache/apt/archives/lock as
root.

** Changed in: aptdaemon (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
