Package: apache2
Version: 2.0.54-5
Severity: normal

Hi there!
I encountered a strange thing I have never seen before.

The following is happening:

"apt-get upgrade" thinks my apache2 is upgradeable.
I upgrade it. Everything goes just fine.

Then I say "apt-get upgrade" again - and it says apache2 is 
should be upgraded _again_!

And it installs the very same packages previously downloaded, as
upgrades.

This goes for the following packages:

  apache2 apache2-common apache2-mpm-prefork apache2-utils libapr0

I don't know whose fault this is.

Both apache2 and apt are from stable. (Latest security updates are
applied.)

   * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 
   * CLUE: This only happend on my amd64 boxen, everywhere else the*
   * upgrade happened only once.                                   *
   * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 

How can I help you to debug this?

Hi,
this is probably the result of an apt bug where it will in some cases upgrade a package forever if it's in the apt-cache, but the same version (with different size) exist in an archive. Just do apt-get clean and it should work fine.
