If you have no obvious problems on your side (i.e. disk space), I
would give it another shot a couple of hours later. Perhaps the
server was having problems or was being updated at the moment of
your request. I am not sure if this is a valid reason, but I have
solved apt-get problems by simply trying again a bit later.
