Bug#383853: apt-get uses undocumented non-word "rred" in the user interface
Package: apt
Version: 0.6.45
Severity: minor
Searching google on rred reveals that it is a method of some sort, but
I cannot find an explanation documented anywhere. The word does not
appear in any of the apt documentation that I can find.
It does however show up in the user interface when downloading updates
for the Packages file. This word should either be documented, or replaced
with something more user friendly. I have no suggestions since I have
not figured out what it means.
