I am quite surprised to see that this critical bug, that renders apt
over ssh unusable if you want to use ssh options, is not fixed in at

somewhere maybe that is unrelated to the patch or a different kind of
regression ?

involved. Given that according to the bug status only two people are
affected and a work
Hello Torsten,
I can confirm that the work around does work on 10.04.
I guess not much people actually use apt over ssh.
