I also had this problem. The update manager kept complaining about a
corrupted cache for over 2 weeks and finally today it started to
segfault.Update-manager,  apt-get, aptitude, all failed to work
properly, so i went and removed apt cache like you did:

sudo rm -f /var/cache/apt/*.bin

and this fixed it...Though this solved it, I think there should be a
more friendly way over this...
