Package: apt
Version: 1.0.9.8.3
when there are invalid or expired apt repositories configured, ALL other apt
repos will not be updated.
In my case:
CRON-APT LINE: /usr/bin/apt-get -o quiet=1 update -o quiet=2
E: Release file for http://ftp.uni-koeln.de/debian/dists/jessie-backports/InRelease is expired (invalid since 8d 18h 50min 50s). Updates for this repository will not be applied
That message implies, that updates for this repository will not be applied (but
others will!)
But no packages are installed. Disabling the expired repository makes "apt-get
dist-upgrade" install all the outstanding packages that have been release in
the last 8 days (since the mentioned repo expired).
Enabling the repo again hides all the outstanding updates right away.

This bug was fixed in 1.3~pre3 with the following commit (strangely enough):
e8e5d464623f1c2e1ef96b14e622728bbf4b89af is the first fixed commit
commit e8e5d464623f1c2e1ef96b14e622728bbf4b89af

allow arch=all to override No-Support-for-Architecture-all
If a user explicitly requests the download of arch:all apt shouldn't get
in the way and perform its detection dance if arch:all packages are
(also) in arch:any files or not.
This e.g. allows setting arch=all on a source with such a field (or one
which doesn't support all at all, but has the arch:all files like Debian
itself ATM) to get only the arch:all packages from there instead of
behaving like a no-op.
