Yes that's true IIRC. And update explicitly rebuilds the cache. That's not a huge issue, unless you are sitting around running apt-get update in loops.
It is not possible to rebuild only changed parts, except for /var/lib/dpkg/status changes. For making that work, a second cache is generated; we cannot do the same for every source list. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/924283 Title: Package lists are fully readed if there are no changes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/924283/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
