Bug#765559: snapshot.debian.org: apt-get update only works on second attempt for security snapshots (wheezy)

Package: snapshot.debian.org
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I'm seeing an issue using snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian-security for wheezy.
Since it works every other try, could it be that one of your mirrors is out of sync/misconfigured?


   * What led up to the situation?

I first noticed the bug when I changed the line 

deb http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian-security/20140926T211744Z wheezy/updates main contrib non-free

to

deb http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian-security/20141015T190511Z wheezy/updates main contrib non-free

and ran apt-get update afterwards.

*Please note: The result is the same whether I use "apt-get -o Acquire::Check-Valid-Until=false update" or simply "apt-get update".*
*Also, I made sure proxies are not used.:*

export
declare -x HOME="/root"
declare -x LOGNAME="root"
declare -x MAIL="/var/mail/root"
declare -x NCURSES_NO_UTF8_ACS="1"
declare -x OLDPWD
declare -x PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"
declare -x PWD="/root"
declare -x SHELL="/bin/bash"
declare -x SHLVL="1"
declare -x SSH_AUTH_SOCK="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
declare -x SSH_CLIENT="XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX XXXXX XXXXX"
declare -x SSH_CONNECTION="XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX XXXXX XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX XXXXX"
declare -x SSH_TTY="/dev/pts/2"
declare -x TERM="xterm"
declare -x USER="root"


   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

I ran apt-get update, encountered the error, ran it again, error seems to be gone.
Running it again, error is back, and again, error is gone.  etc. etc.
So far, every odd-numbered attempt fails, every even-numbered attempt works.


   * What was the outcome of this action?
