Bug#657561: apt-get chokes on bad files, needs manual intervention to fix the situation
I ran into this issue upon upgrading my aptitude from
0.6.3-3.2+squeeze1 to 0.6.9.1-1. It would consistently give the
InRelease gpgv warning and fail to verify the package lists. This
persisted even when I cleared /var/lib/apt/lists. When I downgraded
back to 0.6.3-3.2+squeeze1 and cleared /var/lib/apt/lists, everything
worked again.
