Package installation will fail (loop until forever) even with DEBIAN_PRIORITY=critical. A fix has to avoid #1046914. It could be done with providing Defaults: value for apt-fast/downloadcmd but I'm working on a more generic solution.

This bug should be fixed with apt-fast 1.7.5-2. Thank you for reporting this issue (btw. are you the guy from the iloveubuntu blog comments?)!

As soon as my local builders succeeded I will start Launchpad PPA builders.
