Do "apt-get update" several times in a row.

# apt-get update
Hit:1 ...
Hit:2 ...
Reading package lists... Done
# apt-get update

# apt-get update
Hit:1 ...
Hit:2 ...
Reading package lists... Done

On a Cray, you won't notice the problem, but on smaller computers you
will notice that the command doesn't return right away, but instead does
the long "Reading package lists" step.

In fact that step is totally unnecessary, as we got all "Hit"s, so there
is nothing to update.
