Do you still have the problem?

If so, send me the ls of the /usr/lib/apt/methods

Did you have any problems with the FS (lost data, IO errors, somebody
deleted some files, etc).


Here is my  ls -l  /usr/lib/apt/methods/total 424

Some years ago, a friend of me deleted some directories of the
apt/dpkg, and the only solution that I found to that, was to reinstall
(backup the etc, reinstall and then recover the etc and the installed
programs --dpkg --get-selections/--set-selections--).
