Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.11.11-1
Severity: normal


I have noticed recently that .deb's partially downloaded by http (e.g. 
from kernel-archive.buildserver.net and snapshot.debian.net) are no 
longer resuming where they left off after an interruption (hitting q in 
aptitude) but restarting the download from the beginning which is not 
pleasant when downloading a kernel image or source by dial-up )-:.

apt continues the download if it can, if the server says the file was
updated in the meantime it can't reuse the partial file it already has
of course.

I am a bit at the loose here as we have tests ensureing that download
continueing works as expected – and the bugreport has in exchange not
a lot of information helping in nailing down why it shouldn't or why it
should be a special case here not covered by a test.

I am hence assuming that this problem is fixed in the meantime in the
seven years of silence in this bugreport… closing hence, but feel free
to reopen if this is still reprodicible of course!


Best regards
