Title:
  apt mirror method sends bad query string for arch

Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The apt mirror method sends a bad query string for arch if it is the
  first query string parameter.

  Current examples of query strings:
  "GET /mirrors.txt?archi386&dist=oneiric-security HTTP/1.1"
  "GET /mirrors.txt?archamd64&arch=i386&dist=oneiric-security HTTP/1.1"
  "GET /mirrors.txt?archamd64&dist=oneiric-proposed HTTP/1.1"

  Should be:
  "GET /mirrors.txt?arch=i386&dist=oneiric-security HTTP/1.1"
  "GET /mirrors.txt?arch=amd64&arch=i386&dist=oneiric-security HTTP/1.1"
  "GET /mirrors.txt?arch=amd64&dist=oneiric-proposed HTTP/1.1"

  I believe that the attached patch should resolve this issue.
