apt-get upgrade sometimes needs -f

[songbird <songbird@anthive.com>]

  i'm running testing/sid most of the time, this is an
FYI in case you see similar problems...


  the past few weeks/months when i do:

apt-get update

  and then the

 apt-get upgrade

and answer Y the responses may include lines like:

  E: Failed to fetch http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/lame/libmp3lame0_3.99.5+repack1-6_i386.deb  404  Not Found [IP: 64.50.236.52 80]


  when i use the -f option after the upgrade like:

apt-get upgrade -f

  it will download these files and things work as 
expected.
