To me it looks like #636292 is the general case, and #641769 is just one specific (and quite nasty) way to hit #636292. IMHO, the root cause is that repository metadata is unversioned, and therefore there is no good way to detect all cases of in-mirror and across-mirrors inconsistencies, so that the front-ends like apt can try to work around it. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
