apt-get from apt-move mirror doesn't update binary-all packages

[Andreas Schmidt <andreas@schmidt-privat.de>]

Hello everybody,

I'm using apt-move to build a local mirror for the packages in my apt-get
archive cache. When I upgrade the packages on another machine in my
home network with "apt-get update" and "apt-get dist-upgrade" only the
packages from the binary-i386 branch are upgraded but the packages from
the binary-all branch are left out.

While searching for the reason of this behaviour I found out this:

1. There are packages under the tree debian/dists/potato/main/binary-all,
   but there is no Packages.gz as under .../main/binary-i386.

2. There are some newer packages under binary-all than on the machine I'm
   trying to upgrade (debconf 0.2.80.16 for example - I've version
   0.2.80.17 in the local mirror).

3. I've tried to manually build the missing Packages.gz with
   "dpkg-scanpackages dists/potato/main/binary-all /dev/null > \
   dists/potato/main/binary-all/Packages"
   and "gzip Packages". But apt-get still doesn't upgrade the binary-all
   packages.

So every help with this problem would be appreciated.

As additional information here are some snippets from my configuration files.
