Hello thoughtinstinct,
have you tried - Menu>System>Lite Tweaks
tick the box named "package cache" and click begin.
If this does not solve it try -
Hold down Ctrl and Alt keys and press t key, to open your terminal.
Copy/paste or type in to your terminal
Code:
sudo apt-get cleantype in your password when requested and then press enter.

If Skype related, also try:
Code:
wget https://repo.skype.com/data/SKYPE-GPG-KEYCode:
sudo apt-key add SKYPE-GPG-KEYRe: Update error: File unexpected size - thoughtinstinct - 09-23-2018
Thanks for the reply Jerry. It looks like its indeed skype related, as i had skype installed and i dont know what happened but skype was removed from my laptop after last update as far i know. Tried your solution without much luck and have removed the skype ppa and im waiting to see if evertyhing is alright now. But the question is how and why did skype get removed? Anyway to know that? Thanks in advance.
Re: Update error: File unexpected size - bitsnpcs - 09-23-2018
Hello thoughtinstinct,
Skype was removed as the clean removes partially downloaded packages, as per the error info, which says it is Skype that was partially downloaded.
If you reinstall Skype then using [member=2]Jerry[/member] solution.
Re: Update error: File unexpected size - Valtam - 09-23-2018
Make sure you use Lite Software if you decide to install Skype again, no PPA's.

Re: Update error: File unexpected size - bitsnpcs - 09-23-2018
[member=2]Jerry[/member] will it be needed to purge the removed PPA in this instance before using Lite Software install to prevent issues in future ?If so I am unsure of the command to suggest for this.
Re: Update error: File unexpected size - Valtam - 09-23-2018
Yes, remove PPA first.
