2014-05-22Implement simple by-hash for apt updateMichael Vogt
This implements a apt update schema that get the indexfiles by the hash instead of the name. The rational is that updates to the archive servers/mirrors are not atomic so the client may have the previous version of the Release file when the server updates to a new Release file and new Packages/Sources/Translations indexes. By keeping the files around by their hash we can still get the previous indexfile without a hashsum mismatch. Enable with APT::Acquire::By-Hash=1
