8 years ago Odd. Must be a fluke b/c I'm able to run apm install symbol-gen without issue.
Probably nothing but... apm tried to install es6-symbols but the 2.0 versions package.json was corrupt (the first 16 bytes were wrong) so it failed. I assume downloads happen over TCP/IP and should therefore be immune to corruption in transit and, after deleting /home/user/.atom/.apm/es6-symbol/2.0.1 I reinstalled it and it worked fine so I assume the corruption must have happened my side. No idea if it's atom code, some 3rd party code or my os/hardware at fault - hopefully it's just a one-off - but I thought I'd mention just in case other people are seeing the same error.
Error message below...
