[10:29] <axino> just learned via the ubuntu-devel@ mailing list that the installation of apt-file will configure apt to download the contents on each "apt update" ! Is there a reason it was designed this way, instead of just using "apt-file update" when I want to update the apt-file cache ?
[10:30] <axino> and is there an easy way to instruct "apt update" to NOT download contents files ?
[14:21] <mwhudson> axino: for the latter /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50apt-file.conf
[14:21] <axino> mwhudson: what do I change there ?
[14:21] <axino> mwhudson: FYI I tried "apt-get -o Acquire::IndexTargets="" -o apt-file::Index-Names="" update" without success
[14:21] <mwhudson> axino: well you can just delete it to prevent apt update from doing anything with contents files
[14:21] <axino> (based on information from that file)
[14:22] <axino> ah yeah sure, but then it breaks apt-file update :) - I guess I can create an alias that would do the right thing
[14:22] <mwhudson> axino: oh it looks like /usr/share/doc/apt-file/examples/ has some relevant stuff
[14:22] <mwhudson>  Install as /etc/apt/apt-file.conf to make apt-file parse this file.
[14:22] <mwhudson>  It will be parsed *after* all other apt config files.
[14:22] <mwhudson>  Combine with disable-apt-file.conf to make apt-file only update the
[14:22] <mwhudson>   Contents files on "apt-file update".
[14:23] <axino> mwhudson: welp, /usr/share/doc to the rescue ! Thanks, will take a look
[14:30] <axino> hmm, can't immediately make it work, even after adding the missing index targets as instructed
[14:34] <axino> OK I got it
[14:36] <axino> still downloading 15MB for oracular/universe amd64 Packages [15.3 MB]
[14:49] <mwhudson> axino: that falls under "it's the devel series so the release pocket gets republished all the time" i guess
