Bug#478340: doc/method.sgml out of date



Package: apt
Version: 0.7.11
Severity: normal

Hi,

I'm trying to implement a new method for apt and I'm following
doc/method.sgml for the protocol. Unfortunatly it seems out of sync
with what apt-get actually sends and incomplete. I noticed 2 things so
far:

1) "100 Capabilities" lists "Pre-Scan" as possible field but that is
not explained anywhere.

2) "600 URI Acquire" lists 'Fields: URI, Filename Last-Modified'. Note
the missing ',' there and apt-get actually send 'Index-File: true' as
well.
