Comment (by jdreed):

 The upstream bug appears to be going nowhere fast, and every time I try to
 debug this problem, I can't reproduce it.  We should probably focus our
 efforts on a non-crappy version of athena-auto-update or something.  Or
 consider using apt-get to do the downloading, since we really only care
 about aptitude for its dependency resolver.  Or will that be harder?
