[Bug 1471903] Re: -updates, -security missing from apt lists

[Oliver Grawert]

how doe it help to keep outdated readonly lists around apart from
wasting a lot of space ? this patch must stay, it is pretty useless to
have lists shipped in the readonly images on the phone that were only
generated at build time of the image and never get updated. how about we
make the dir writable and have apport-cli update the lists when a user
the first report or some such (you have to run it manually via a
developer mode console or the terminal anyway)

Title:
  -updates, -security missing from apt lists

Status in live-build package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in livecd-rootfs package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  As indicated by Robie in bug 1467830 vivid-updates is missing from
  /var/lib/apt/lists on the phablet images for Ubuntu 15.04. This
  prevents one from using apport-cli to report bugs about packages that
  are from the -updates pocket. This is due to the fact that apport will
  not allow one to report bugs about packages which it cannot determine
  are from the official archive or a native origin PPA.
