The same thing has been happening to me using yum (so it is not
exclusive to apt-get).  I had presumed that while the physical rpm had
made it to the various mirrors, they had yet to update their "header"
files, which is what it sounds like William is pointing out to us.

I am finding that intermittently it has been taking 24-48 hours for the
yum "headers" to reflect the same information displayed by the
rhn_applet on my panel.

BTW, strace finally updated about an hour ago for me....
