Package: apt
Version: 0.8.15.9
Severity: normal

Hash: SHA1

This useless warning was added between squeeze and wheezy:

 nemi:/tmp# apt-get clean
 N: Ignoring 'CVS' in directory '/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/' as it is not a regular file

I have tried playing with Dir::Ignore-Files-Silently to turn it off
without any success.  Could this noise please be removed again? 

No, I'm not going to remove the CVS directory.  It's there for a reason.


Thanks,
Bjørn
