[Bug 902548] Re: apt: add option to compress files in /var/lib/apt/lists

Though this is not a bug,i like this idea as it could save some diskspace. I once had 700 mb of database cache as I never knew that with every update i.e "sudo apt update",the database would get updated and sync and just dump the new one.Never ever the old and not needed would still exist as memory
