Could not open file /var/cach - open (2: No such file or directory)

[Ian Turner]

Upgrading from Kubuntu 15.10 to Kubuntu 16.04, I noticed this message at the top of the terminal during the "Installing the upgrades" stage. I'm not sure where it comes from, unfortunately.

E: Could not open file /var/cach - open (2: No such file or directory)
E: Unable to determine file size for fd -1 - fstat (9: Bad file descriptor)
E: Read error - read (9: Bad file descriptor)
E: Internal error, could not locate member control.tar.{gzbz2xzlzma}

Somewhere in the distribution it seems like there is a typo (/var/cach instead of /var/cache).

What release was this on?

This was observed while upgrading Wily → Xenial
