(Get the code!)
I didn't mean to sound like I was complaining, sorry if I did! I just wanted
to stimulate a conversation around exploring more detail, which I certainly
have. :)

It's been often enough lately that I noticed, I can't be more accurate, sorry.
It may be partially down to the fact that I have a Launchpad repo on a few
machines and the long wait is obvious if it happens more than once. I also
heard a few other people saying that it's happened to them, so it does explain
the increased exposure I guess.
I totally understand that this might not happen very often in reality, but
when it does it can be annoying. Perhaps another way around it is to provide
a way to override the repack so I can complete my operation that I want done,
and pack it later?
Anyway, I guess it won't bite me again for a while now :)
Cheers.
