Update 1:



I am running Ubuntu 18.04, bionic.



dpkg -l apt libapt-pkg5.0 shows:

  • Alright, you have two completely wrong package versions for your Ubuntu release there. That apt version is actually from 17.04 and the libapt-pkg5.0 is from 16.04, no surprise that doesn't work together. As a first step to fix your issue, we'll try to get apt running again by manually downloading and installing the correct packages. Please download apt and libapt-pkg5.0 from the bionic-update repo and install them with sudo dpkg -i /PATH/TO/PACKAGE

  • Once apt is functional again, we need to investigate why you had these invalid versions installed, where they came from and whether there are more bad versions. Please edit your question and add the output of grep ^deb /etc/apt/sources.list{,.d/*.list} to list all your configured software sources. Don't paste the output in a comment, as that will not preserve any formatting and make it hard to read.
