Comment 1 for bug 1063097

So does this need fixing in apt, not just aptdaemon? If apt returned an error code, not just a translated error message, the aptdaemon GUI could offer ways of recovering from the error. For example, the "No space left on device" error might trigger an apt-get autoremove. The "The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened" error (why isn't that two separate errors?) might trigger regenerating the package list or restoring it from backup. And so on.
