I've mirrored some ubuntu repositories to a an internal repository using apt-mirror however due to https://serverfault.com/questions/93437/apt-mirror-does-not-mirror-the-i18n-directory i get the following:

Ign https://internalrepo precise-updates/main Translation-en
Ign https://internalrepo precise-updates/multiverse Translation-en
Ign https://internalrepo precise-updates/restricted Translation-en
Ign https://internalrepo precise-updates/universe Translation-en

Now i'm trying to speed up as there are quite a few of these that slow down the apt-get update on our machines.

Is there any way I can tell the sources.list.d files or apt-get to don't even attempt to get these (I guess this would speed it up more than hitting an ignore)?

Using Ubuntu 12.04

    Indeed it is, apologies for the duplicate post, my previous searches didn't render much. For those landing here in the future I will add the correct solution below. Nov 15, 2012 at 13:27

I fixed this problem by adding the fallowing line:

Acquire::Languages "none";

at the end of /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00aptitude (use sudo -H gedit /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00aptitude in a terminal to edit this file).

After I did this, sudo apt-get update is running faster.
