    apt command issues

    Due to some corruption issue during ubuntu (and ubuntu based sytems), this error may come up:

    apt: relocation error: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libapt-private.so.0.0: symbol _ZN9pkgSystem9LockInnerEv, version APTPKG_5.0 not defined in file libapt-pkg.so.5.0 with link time reference

    There's no clear answer on how to fix this or why it happens, but it corrupts the file libapt-private.so.0.0.0. One way to resolve the issue is to copy the file from another ubuntu 16.04 install. (Or you can download it from here: libapt-private.so.0.0.0 version x64)
