Title:
  aptitude should report the full url of broken sources

Status in “aptitude” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: aptitude

  When a url in sources.list is broken it does not report the full URL,
  only the domain.  For example:

  Err http://ppa.launchpad.net karmic/main Packages
    404  Not Found
  Err http://ppa.launchpad.net karmic/main Sources
    404  Not Found

  This is problematic when you have many sources with the same domain,
  PPAs being the notable example.  It makes it impossible to tell which
  of the sources is at fault. Aptitude should report the full URL,
  perhaps when some verbosity or debug flag is provided.
