Bug Description

(Originally posted this in here: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1001780/comments/23 , was told to make a new bug report.)

Upgraded from 12.04 LTS to 14.04 LTS. "apt-get update" check now downloaded enormous amounts of data from the repositories (37meg+, in my case), even when the remote repository files/indexes are still the same.

Seems to be a duplicate/regression of these bugs: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1001780 and http://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/1001886
