See how locally I have just the Release file: root@juju-cb14ed-0-lxd-3:/var/lib/apt/lists# l *Release* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 100K Jan 15 18:03 archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_xenial-backports_InRelease -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 242K Apr 21 2016 archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_xenial_InRelease -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 100K Jan 18 11:42 archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_xenial-updates_InRelease -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 100K Jan 18 11:42 security.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_xenial-security_InRelease -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7.7K Jan 18 11:45 ubuntu-cloud.archive.canonical.com_ubuntu_dists_xenial-updates_newton_Release Now I try an update. See how the Release.gpg file gets a "Hit:" instead of a "Get:": root@juju-cb14ed-0-lxd-3:/var/lib/apt/lists# apt update Get:1 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security InRelease [102 kB] Hit:2 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial InRelease Ign:3 http://ubuntu-cloud.archive.canonical.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/newton InRelease Get:4 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates InRelease [102 kB] Hit:5 http://ubuntu-cloud.archive.canonical.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/newton Release Get:6 http://ubuntu-cloud.archive.canonical.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/newton Release.gpg [543 B] Hit:7 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-backports InRelease Fetched 205 kB in 0s (395 kB/s) Reading package lists...
