Ok, first of all: Thank you for helping me!

Yes, I can not remember what I did wrong last time I used Debian.
Maybe it is important to say, that I have 2 system running on my machine.
1. Debian (stable, for backups and open-source-software testing)
2. Windows (for gaming and reinstalling every year^^)
I did not use Debian for a while (several weeks/months), but now I need it
for my work.
This is why I do not remember what I changed on the system last time I used it...

In your last post you gave me the hint with perl and I checked it...
Maybe this is the source of the problem, because as I know apt uses perl somehow...?!

Don't know, maybe.. How can I find out?

What is smart? I don't think that it is running.

There's the clue.
If you can't remember what happened then (mixed repositories, aborted
install, bodgied compile etc) then maybe it's something you don't know
about....
fsck lately?
Are you running SMART?
(I have no clues as to your hardware or setup, and whether it's relevant)
what does:-
apt-get -sf install
give?

Tells me apt is working - but doesn't rule out a corrupted database....
