Don't have a clue as to what caused it but I had the same problem awhile back. 
What I finally did was go into my /var/cache/apt/archives directory and 
deleted the already downloaded .deb files for the packages giving me the 
problem. Then once apt downloaded and installed the packages again it went 
away, you may want to try the same.
