Package: apt-file
Version: 2.4.0
Severity: wishlist

I copied all of /var/cache/apt/apt-file/ from a machine that I just
updated, to one that had not been powered up for two weeks.

Nevertheless, apt-file update just acted like I didn't do any of the
above, and proceeded to download all over again on the latter machine.

The man page should say what needs to be done if one wants to avoid a
second download.

The sources.lists files are the same on both machines, and I was careful
to preserve timestamps.

(Note I copied via memory card, only one machine was powered up at a time.)
