The actual terminal output of the failure might be nice. This could easily be breakage from 3 areas:

1) A web server that doesn't properly serve files over 2GB.
2) apt unable to correctly deal with large files.
3) dpkg unable to correctly deal with large files.

The check you're describing *sounds* like it's apt failing with (2), but it's hard to know for sure with a verbal description instead of a good ol' copy and paste.
