[Bug 1801338] Re: apt fails to properly handle server-side connection closure

[Julian Andres Klode]

It's unclear if xenial's apt is affected or not, we did not get to
testing that yet.

  apt fails to properly handle server-side connection closure

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  In some cases, apt does not correctly handle server-side connection closure after a pipeline, and aborts the file being downloaded with an "Undetermined Error" when the connection has been closed.

  [Test case]
  This could be seen by running apt build-dep evince on cosmic with a recent apt with the pipelining fix (such as 1.6.6) against a local mirror running apache from trusty. It remains to be seen whether this is easily reproducible for anyone.

  [Regression potential]
  N/A yet.
