Description (last modified by broder) (diff)

Ubuntu doesn't provide pdiffs. apt tries to fetch them. We should make it not print suspicious looking messages when they don't exist because this makes people think auto-update is erroring when it isn't

I disagree. They're harmless, they don't cause actual errors, Debian uses pdiffs, and someday Ubuntu might. I think this is a terrible idea from a maintainability standpoint.
