有什么办法可以摆脱翻译的东西吗？我厌倦了它导致大量的存储库检查而不是检查更少的存储库（69 个实际存储库 vs. 169 个检查）

Answer 1

要禁用下载翻译，请创建一个名为/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/99translations并将以下内容放入其中的文件：

Acquire::Languages "none";

您可能还需要删除 /var/lib/apt/lists/ 中的现有翻译文件

有关更多信息，请参阅 apt.conf (5) 的手册页。

Answer 2

只是为了记录（因为有些人会因此而绊倒……）上面的 99Translations 文件将导致 apt to barf - 删除“Packages: *”行 - 仅一行就足够了：

Acquire::Languages "none";

此外，apt 仍会检索您的语言环境/语言的文件。

Answer 3

启用流水线来批量处理这些请求，速度要快得多：

Acquire::http { Pipeline-Depth "200"; }

但根据我的经验，这可能会导致下载中断；http 错误代码似乎级联什么的。如果您正在与 apt-cacher-ng（镜像模式或代理模式）交谈，它应该足够安全。否则，如果您的镜子坏了，请准备好禁用它。

我建议不要将语言设置为none，因为它会中断apt-cache search（没有意味着没有，当有用的搜索需要至少一种语言的描述时）。基于语言环境的默认值包括不必要的区域变体，但类似于以下内容：

Acquire::Languages { "fr"; "en"; };

是合理的。
