Any ideas on why apt-get update may be ignoring some URLs? Specifically some translation-related ones.

Sample output:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo apt-get update

They're ignored because they're not present, but it doesn't matter — the original (English) descriptions are in the various Packages files (e.g. for jessie/main).
