I'm having this error as well after upgrading from 12.04 LTS to 14.04
LTS. I'm having to download 37MB+ every time I run the software updater
and/or use apt-get. I've tired using some of the tricks above, like
using touch and disabling some repos, but it's still happening.
It's tolerable for the t
Likewise - Just upgraded to 14.04, and downloading 15.1MB per apt-get
update (although not absolutely _every_ time, perhaps the first time
each hour?)

The internal mirror script has been fixed to not clobber the timestamps
for old files, so this should no longer be a big problem.

Not everyone has high-bandwidth plans. I'll probably have to move to a
low-bandwidth plan shortly and downloading 12 MB or so daily is going to
hurt.

I'm amazed that every ubuntu mirror hasn't gone up in arms about this
bug. They must be feeling it. Went from 40k-13000k that's what a 325+
fold increase in their outbound bandwidth levels. They must have massive
pipes and don't care. :/

How about using zsync for downloading the lists?
Practically feasible solution, with no additional server side overload.
@David: If you have 50 servers that poll for updates every 60 minutes, I
suggest you set up a caching server. That saves a lot of bandwidth. I

I am feeling this bug so much because I am a specialized hosting

A fix would save a lot of bandwidth for users, mirrors, and Canonical. A

a patch appears soon. Problem started 4/26/2012 (+ or - a day), I saw

@zpletan, touching them stops them from being downloaded. You should
