Bug Description
Binary package hint: apt
After I "apt-get update" I always receive the message "È presente nuova mail in /var/mail/root" (new message in /var/mail/root)
Doing "cat /var/mail/root" I see the following message.
From: Anacron <root@vega>
To: root@vega

I recommend you clean your apt cache with www.mutt. org/doc/ manual/ for further reading.
$ sudo apt-get clean
This will remove the broken packages. For reading the mail use a mail user agent, like mutt or mailx. See http://
