** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Triaged
** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided => Medium
** Description changed:
I'm using Ubuntu 11.10 dev with apt 0.8.16~exp5ubuntu6. If a package
can't be found on apt-get download the other packages aren't downloaded
too. --ignore-missing doesn't force to continue the download. For
example "apt-get download --ignore-missing htop ia33-libs" will stop on
ia33-libs because the package doesn't exist but htop will not be
downloaded then too.
+
+ TEST CASE:
+ apt-get download --ignore-missing htop ia33-libs
