I've applied that commit on top of ben (0.7.4) from stretch, and it
resolves this issue. The Packages & Sources files are no longer
downloaded again when `ben tracker ...` is executed, and the various
settings from the global.conf files are used again.
Will this fix find its way into a stretch-pu?
Kind Regards,
Bas
