Why are my apt-get update fetches so large?
Since i installed Ubuntu 12.04 Precise x64, the apt-get update size is killing me.. Since i'm stuck with a slow connection, its a pain to download ~12MB everytime. Even if I run it twice back to back, it still downloads ~12MB.
I've read some other 2-4 threads here and at ubuntuforums concerning the same issue and have already commented out the source line ( there were 2 only of these) in sources.list file but it still no joy..
Is it just because 12.04 is so new now and receiving frequent updates? Earlier when i used 10.04, there was no any problem like that... My sources.list and apt-get update log below:
