This bug was fixed in the package aptdaemon - 0.40+bzr529-0ubuntu3

  * debian/patches/09_fix_index_race_659438.patch:
    - If the background cron job rebuilds the apt indexes the
      apt.Cache.required_download method fails, since it tries to access
      the not available indexes. This patch is a workaround since it
      is requires a lock on the indexes before caluclating the size
