On October 20th and again October 21st, when I run sudo apt-get update,
the process stalls at the stage when the output reads, "[waiting for headers]"
I'm running Trisquel 7 on a Lenovo Thinkpad T420. This has not happened before.
Plenty of RAM, lots of hard drive space. Up & running for over a year.

All my fault. Previously I had run software updater; then I intended to run sudo apt-get update & sudo apt-get upgrade, but instead I accidentally started software updater again, realized my error, and aborted software updater. That action crossed up something in the retrieval of archived data.

I "fixed" the problem by changing a setting in software updater, running it again, changing the setting back, and running software updater yet again. This time it completed its cycle successfully without complaint, and now sudo apt-get update works OK again.

Nothing to see here, folks; drive right on by and clear the traffic jam.

If you discovered the secret, please contact me, I'm willing to pay good money for the information, as I'd like to travel in the future too.
