Public bug reported:

For 16.04, aptdaemon version 1.1.1+bzr982-0ubuntu14, the
_DESCS_ERROR[ERROR_CACHE_BROKEN] message in enums.py is:

Check if you are using third party repositories. If so disable them,
since they are a common source of problems. Furthermore run the
following command in a Terminal: apt-get install -f

This command should be prefixed with sudo as its omission is confusing
users, for example http://askubuntu.com/q/816626/425479.

** Affects: aptdaemon (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
