Bug#304911: apt (0.5.28.1) improvement, multiple instances



Package: apt
Version: 0.5.28.1

Only one instance of apt-get appears to be allowed to run at anyone
time.  it would be better if multiple copies were allowed to run, and
they would then use a spool dir to manage communication with the other
instances.  Also before installing they should check if those deps have
now been satisfied.  Obviously it would be better if only one instance
was installing (copying files) at a time, but the downloading can be
paralelised.

Kind regards
JG
