Package: apt
Version: 0.6.44.1
Severity: normal

I find it hard to believe that this hasn't been reported already, but I
couldn't find it anywhere... my "aptitude update" has looked like this since
pdiff support was turned on:

Get:38 2006-06-04-1349.29.pdiff [248B]
Get:39 2006-06-04-1349.29.pdiff [248B]
Get:40 2006-06-04-1349.29.pdiff [248B]
Get:41 2006-06-05-1427.58.pdiff [898B]
Get:42 2006-06-05-1427.58.pdiff [898B]
Get:43 2006-06-05-1427.58.pdiff [898B]
Get:44 2006-06-04-1349.29.pdiff [15.1kB]
Get:45 2006-06-04-1349.29.pdiff [15.1kB]
Get:46 2006-06-04-1349.29.pdiff [15.1kB]

I don't know whether it's actually making an http request for each one of
those files three times, but it definitely claims to.

Version: 0.9.14.3~exp1

Hi,

apt version 0.9.14.3~exp1 changed rred handling "completely" (at least
by default), so its a) passing by a lot faster and b) each pdiff is only
listed once (expect the last one) so it behaves like status reports for
other files in the mix. Nobody complained about those, so that display
seems to be "good enough".

See also my other message in this bug-group:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=605873#10

In the end, the propose of this display isn't to show all freaking
details about what happens but a birdseye view just so that an observer
can see that "something" happens…


Best regards

David Kalnischkies
