Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: tzdata

Just ran upgrade today on Maverick and getting this result,
...
dpkg: error processing 
/var/cache/apt/archives/tzdata_2011g-0ubuntu0.10.10_all.deb (--unpack):
 unable to create `/usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Manaus.dpkg-new' (while 
processing `./usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Manaus'): Invalid argument
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/tzdata_2011g-0ubuntu0.10.10_all.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Has thrown my system into a total mess now as when I try to fix this
with "apt-get -f install"  apt-get wants to remove hundreds of packages
requiring a type in confirmation. I'm trying to "hold" tzdata at tzdata-
2011e but cannot do that and cannot upgrade anything else because of
this failure. What's causing this and how to fix. I had a fully working
system this morning until i tried to upgrade today.
