[Bug 1527464] Re: [trusty]Apt-get error in Azure repo due to “Hash Sum mismatch”

[Julian Andres Klode]

Well, this can happen. Talk to the repository owners, and perhaps ask
them to switch to by-hash layout if they update often - The normal
format is not safe against modification (see
https://wiki.debian.org/RepositoryFormat).

In any case, this is a bug in the repo, not in apt.
