Confirm that this workstation appears to have file-system problems.
We wont submit further reports from the bug-reporting tool until after
fsck, reinstall, and/or hardware replacement.
I'm going to look at [617612] which likely had same cause.
Anyhow, for a bit of technical detail, openssh-server showed as already
successfully installed, but we got read errors trying to install another:

$ sudo aptitude install kdelibs5
[...]
Unpacking kdelibs5 (from .../kdelibs5_4%3a4.4.2-0ubuntu4_i386.deb) ...
lzma: Decoder error
dpkg-deb: subprocess <decompress> returned error exit status 1

3a4.4.2-0ubuntu4_i386.deb (--unpack):
 short read in buffer_copy (backend dpkg-deb during
`./usr/lib/libkio.so.5.4.0')
No apport report written because the error message indicates a dpkg I/O
