The file is supposed to be named 10periodic so I would suggest renaming it (as root) and try the two commands again:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

There is (in all likelyhood) a 10periodic file on the system. .dpkg-* (.dpkg-old, .dpkg-new etc.) files have been created by apt (dpkg) during an upgrade. This happens when user has made changes to a config file and a new version of the package that owns the config file has an updated version of the original config file. In this case, apt has overwritten 10periodic, but saved user-modified config file as 10periodic.dpkg-old so that the changes made to the configuration are not completely lost (and can be merged manually to the new config file if possible/desired). If a user chooses to keep their existing configuration during package upgrade, the old config is kept and the new packaged version is saved as .dpkg-dist instead.

It's usually a good idea to run 'sudo updatedb && sudo locate .dpkg-' from time to time to find altered config files and check whether you want to do some merging...and do some cleanup (removing the "obsolete" configs).
