Does anyone else face the same issue, if so any help would be welcome. Thanks

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.

This may have been due to excessive load on your mirror. Could you please try the upgrade again? Thanks in advance.

I tried recreating this by restoring the apt-clone file attached to this bug and attempting an upgrade but I did not encounter the same error so I still suspect the mirror was overloaded.
