Bug Description

I was trying to recover my apt-install system by following the instructions on this website:
http://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=n&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&layout=2&eotf=1&u=http%3A%2F%2Fforum.ubuntuusers.de%2Ftopic%2Faktualisierungsproblem-wine-1-5%2F%23post-4722237&act=url

The update process was broken due to another bug I have already reported on this site (at least 6 other people affected - sorry I can't find it now, I don't have the url to hand). The original problem seemed to come from an internal error generated by apt-get trying to update itself during a routine upgrade. I do not have all the error message to hand, but this one was on the end of one of the traces:
E: Internal Error, No file name for libapt-pkg4.12

The original problem appeared to be due to a mis-match between 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the library.

Now I am really screwed, and IDK how to recover normal update/upgrade operations.
