** Description changed: I haven't had time to really go through this, but I rebuilt xenial's debmirror on trusty and when I run it against the ubuntu archive I notice that Packages files become out of date but the Packages.gz file is up to date. debmirror appears to consider the Packages file for computing what to download but puts the Packages.gz in place resulting in the mirror advertising that updates are available but giving 404s when apt tries to retrieve the debs. For example, with the recent openjdk-7 update: $ sudo apt-get update Ign http://debmirror trusty InRelease Get:1 http://debmirror trusty-security InRelease [65.9 kB] Get:2 http://debmirror trusty-updates InRelease [65.9 kB] Hit http://debmirror trusty Release.gpg Hit http://debmirror trusty Release Hit http://debmirror trusty-security/main Translation-en Hit http://debmirror trusty-security/multiverse Translation-en Hit http://debmirror trusty-security/restricted Translation-en Hit http://debmirror trusty-security/universe Translation-en Hit http://debmirror trusty-security/main amd64 Packages Hit http://debmirror trusty-security/restricted amd64 Packages Hit http://debmirror trusty-security/universe amd64 Packages Hit http://debmirror trusty-security/multiverse amd64 Packages Hit http://debmirror trusty-security/main i386 Packages Hit http://debmirror trusty-security/restricted i386 Packages Hit http://debmirror trusty-security/universe i386 Packages Hit http://debmirror trusty-updates/main Translation-en Hit http://debmirror trusty-updates/multiverse Translation-en Hit http://debmirror trusty-updates/restricted Translation-en Hit http://debmirror trusty-updates/universe Translation-en Hit http://debmirror trusty-security/multiverse i386 Packages Get:3 http://debmirror trusty-updates/main amd64 Packages [931 kB] Hit http://debmirror trusty-updates/restricted amd64 Packages Get:4 http://debmirror trusty-updates/universe amd64 Packages [460 kB] Hit http://debmirror trusty-updates/multiverse amd64 Packages Get:5 http://debmirror trusty-updates/main i386 Packages [895 kB] Hit http://debmirror trusty-updates/restricted i386 Packages Get:6 http://debmirror trusty-updates/universe i386 Packages [462 kB] Hit http://debmirror trusty-updates/multiverse i386 Packages Hit http://debmirror trusty/main amd64 Packages Hit http://debmirror trusty/restricted amd64 Packages Hit http://debmirror trusty/universe amd64 Packages Hit http://debmirror trusty/multiverse amd64 Packages Hit http://debmirror trusty/main i386 Packages Hit http://debmirror trusty/restricted i386 Packages Hit http://debmirror trusty/universe i386 Packages Hit http://debmirror trusty/multiverse i386 Packages Ign http://debmirror trusty/main Translation-en_US Ign http://debmirror trusty/main Translation-en Ign http://debmirror trusty/multiverse Translation-en_US Ign http://debmirror trusty/multiverse Translation-en Ign http://debmirror trusty/restricted Translation-en_US Ign http://debmirror trusty/restricted Translation-en Ign http://debmirror trusty/universe Translation-en_US Ign http://debmirror trusty/universe Translation-en Fetched 2,879 kB in 2s (984 kB/s) Reading package lists...

Removing the Packages* and Sources* files from the .temp directory allows debmirror to pull these missing debs.

Ie, after a successful run, there are some Sources.xz and Packages.xz, a bunch of Sources.gz and Packages.gz and a bunch of Sources and Packages files remaining.
