Yes, here is examples of output:

Fetched 114 MB in 2min 38s (718 kB/s)
E: Failed to write temporary StateFile /var/lib/apt/extended_states.tmp
Reading package lists...

or

Writing extended state information...
E: Failed to write temporary StateFile /var/lib/apt/extended_states.tmp

Writing extended state information...
