Imagine you have a check of a remote system that correctly executes an apt-get update.
Typically, I have seen as resulting printout there this line:
Reading package lists... Done
By occasion, with Ubuntu 20.04, I've found out though the following:
- if you execute
apt-get updatelocally, the system says,Reading package lists... Done; - if you execute
apt-get updateremotely, the system says only,Reading package lists...that is the word "Done" is missing.
Previously, I haven't observed this behavior with Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
What could be the reason?
Below: console excerpt with the described Bash exercise and corresponding output.
