Try clearing the apt cache with sudo apt-get clean and even if that fails, try reinstalling python-minimal with sudo apt-get install --reinstall python-minimal.

Try clearing the apt cache with sudo apt-get clean and even if that fails, try reinstalling python-minimal with sudo apt-get install --reinstall python-minimal.
