Fix Errors by Reloading APT Index Files

During apt-get update fatal errors such as size mismatch may occur. These errors can often be resolved by reloading the index files. To do this we need to delete the current index files and then reload them:-

sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/*_*
sudo apt-get update

and hopefully that is it.
