Bug#49420: apt: let -d download, while upgrade

[<mrwas@interware.hu>]

Package: apt
Version: 0.3.13
Severity: wishlist

While apt-get upgrade is running,
don't let an other apt fall back when downloading a simple package.
example:
tty1: apt-get upgrade
tty2: apt-get -d install a2ps
on tty2 it doesn't let me download a simple package.
imho, it doesn't hurt any database, or anything like that,
so the two cmd's can go at one time.
if not, please mail me at: mrwas@interware.hu
