I thought this was already solved.  New packages need to be in place before
they are referenced in apt lists, and old packages must not be deleted
until a safe amount of time has passed since they were last referenced by
any apt lists.

Surely the redirector isn't sending people to mirrors which have the wrong
version of apt lists?
