Can you reproduce this?
With 0.7.5, it seems that the errors are printed now (I don't know if
they are the same or not, but I guess that they are equivalent for the
purpose of this bug). So it seems that the bug is not present now.
Can you please confirm?

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones
used instead.
Probably relevant to this bug report, David Kalnischkies from APT's fame
told me about a similar bug report that:
"629449 you can probably close. apt < 1.1 had this behaviour, >= 1.1
should still cry loudly about the one broken repo, but update the
others just fine"
Applied to this bug report, I guess that if you have several repos
enabled the "Packages" file would be different, as long as one of them
has been updated and (lib)apt cannot find any fault with it.
Closing the bug report now.
