Update check downloads too much

[Gavin77]

When refreshing the repos to check for updates (via synaptic or muon etc) since yesterday it downloads over 13MB of data (it'll be more if you have source enabled). This is what it's usually like when using the alpha/beta builds not the stable release.

Up to this Wednesday, refreshing the repos would take a few seconds now it's taking closer to a minute. I haven't changed anything here.

Is anyone else seeing this?


Edit: As of yesterday it seems to have been fixed.

Same here, ~23MB downloaded today every time I run apt-get update command (tried several times during the day). This started a few days ago, before that a quick check of all repos would take just a couple seconds. Ubuntu repos broken?

moral to the story: do updates when the Wizard of Oz says do your updates, at lease somewhat "minimal"....gotta remember bloodmoon whatever.
