Title:
  no easy way to tell which repo is hanging an update

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When a repository is extremely slow or unresponsive, apt-get update
  hangs with a "[Waiting for headers]" message.  There is no way to tell
  which repository is causing the hang.

  A soft kill (specifically SIGINT),  received by apt-get should cause
  it to display the repository currently being accessed prior to
  termination.
