Hello, I'm sorry if this question has been asked or answered before, but I simply can not find the answer. I've looked in every apt related documentation package (apt, apt-doc, apt-howto), I've searched the web using Google, with and without resticting to site:debian.org. The apt documentation is woefully inadequate when it comes to describing the configuration of this very handy program. The only thing I could find which might be useful was at the link below. But before attempting to get the apt source and apply a patch that may or may not even work with the current apt source, I figured I'd ask.
http://lists.debian.org/deity/2004/02/msg00146.html Please leave out the "you shouldn't be asking such a stupid question" responses and just please point me to the information or explain the reason why Packages.bz2 files have existed for several years, but are not configured by default, and not explained how to do so in any documentation a user could reasonably be expected to find.
