Bug#873689: apt: create a clean-update command
Package: apt Version: 1.5~beta2 Severity: wishlist Hi, I'm looking for a way to suppress the data stored by the command apt update. It would be nice to have something like "apt clean-update". As this was missing, I was running : rm -r /var/cache/apt/ /var/lib/apt/lists. But it would be easier and more consistent to have such ability within apt, even more when your are troubleshooting a repository created with apt-mirror.

Bug#835473: locate: better management of snapshot FS (zfs,btrfs)
Package: locate Version: 4.6.0+git+20160703-2 Severity: important Hi, I'm using the zfs snapshots to get a sort of backup. Each snapshot is a big as the original FS is. So if we have 10 snapshots, updatedb.findutils will takes 10 times longer. I do think that snapshot *in general* should not read by locate. In my case, I've added to /etc/updatedb.findutils.cron.local PRUNEPATHS="$PRUNEPATHS /home/briner/.zfs" Could be also a good idea, to minimize the work, to at least provide an commented updatedb.findutils.cron.local which says in it the option that could be added.
