package gtali 1:2.28.0-0ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: corrupted filesystem tarfile - corrupted package archive

[Abhijeet]

Binary package hint: gnome-games

I just clicked on the Install updates in Update Manager. It downloaded everything. During installing the package, it gave the submitted error. Prior, during boot, Grub had given Error 18. That was automatically fixed when I cold-started the machine after 10 minutes.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that there was an error caused by a corrupted archive. Please execute the following commands, as it will clear your package cache, in a terminal ( Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal ) :

sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update

Then try performing the update again. This will likely resolve your issue. If so please set the bug's status to Invalid. Thanks in advance!

Ya. I did that after posting the bug. I guess, henceforth I would prefer
command line interface over GUI. It's more verbose. [?]

Thanks.

Abhijeet.

Observe. Deduce. Engineer.
