I see that the buggy version of APT (0.6.46) has propagated into
testing. It looks like there are plans to fix #388708 -- see the bug
log page. A version 0.6.46.1exp1 has been uploaded to experimental with
this bug fixed, and you may want to test that version of the package. I
hope this bugfix can make it into Etch!
