Like I said, mirrors should update their Packages files only after
they've got all the .debs the Packages file refer to. This is best
practice for operating a .deb mirror, but requires the mirror admins set
it up especially.

In pseudocode: mirror all new .debs; mirror Packages files; remove
obsolete .debs.

Debian used to have the same problem. It no longer seems to have it, for
any of the mirrors I use. Thus it should be a solvable problem for
Ubuntu as well.
