Bug#824926: apt-get: `by-hash` not used for `*.diff/Index` files
Package: apt
Version: 1.2.12
Severity: normal
As mentioned on IRC, apt-get doesn't use the new `by-hash` URLs to
retrieve `*.diff/Index` files yet. As these change just like Packages
and other indices, it would be nice if apt would also retrieve them
via `by-hash` if possible.
