Hello,
I am [waiting] for a reply from apt developers in order to clarify
whether there is a Pre-Download hook which works exactly as the
Pre-Install hook.

[waiting]: 

An alternative strategy could perhaps be the use of [json hooks], which
however seem to require a heavy redesign of all the interaction between
apt-listbugs and libapt-pkg. Frankly speaking, I do not know when I
will get around to doing such a redesign... Sorry about that!  :-(

[json hooks]:

As per this comment
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=80123#68 on #80123
now there are hooks which run before downloads. I would love to see
apt-listbugs using them to show bug reports before downloading the
packages.
