Package: apt-file
Version: 2.1.6
Severity: wishlist

Even though we removed the relevant lines from /etc/apt/sources.list,
after apt-file update the old mirrors' *.gz file is still left sitting
in /var/cache/apt/apt-file.

Sure, the man page has
       purge  remove all Contents-<ARCH>.gz files from the cache directory.
but that will blow away the current mirrors' ones too.

Therefore,
       update Resynchronize the package contents from their sources.
              The lists of the contents of packages are fetched from
              the location(s) specified in /etc/apt/sources.list. This
              command attempts to fetch the Contents-<ARCH>.gz files
              from remote sources. For downloading these uses either
              the curl or wget commands as specified in apt-file.conf.
needs also to:
              Any Contents...gz files that do no longer correspond to
              line in sources.list will be removed.

P.S., sources.list is now a directory tree too, so mention it.
