Title:
  Segmentation fault when running apt update using libapt-pkg5.90_1.9.2

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  apt update doesn't work after upgrading apt to 1.9.2 with strace:
  openat(AT_FDCWD, "/var/lib/apt/lists/lock", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_NOFOLLOW, 0640) = 4
  fcntl(4, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC)           = 0
  fcntl(4, F_SETLK, {l_type=F_WRLCK, l_whence=SEEK_SET, l_start=0, l_len=0}) = 0
  --- SIGSEGV {si_signo=SIGSEGV, si_code=SEGV_MAPERR, si_addr=0x5e} ---
  +++ killed by SIGSEGV (core dumped) +++

  downgrading libapt-pkg5.90 to 1.9.1 fixes it.
