Package: approx
Version: 2.8.0
Severity: important
When APT is configured to use approx,
apt-get update
..often produces errors such as:
Failed to fetch
http://debcache:9999/debian-volatile/dists/etch/volatile/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2
MD5Sum mismatch
..or:
GPG error: http://debcache etch/volatile Release: The following
signatures were invalid: BADSIG EC61E0B0BBE55AB3 Debian-Volatile Archive
Automatic Signing Key (4.0/etch)
..which can be due to approx receiving stale files from a transparent
proxy. Some ISPs use transparent proxies without allowing their
customers to opt-out.
Configuring APT to go direct rather than via approx results in the same
behaviour yet invoking commands such as:
wget --no-cache http://security.debian.org/dists/etch/updates/Release
-O /dev/null
..fixes the problem (until the next time the transparent proxy serves up
a stale file).
If approx could get curl to do the equivalent of --no-cache then this
problem would go away forever.

Description:
approx - caching proxy server for Debian archive files
Closes: 488115 490028 501628 502405
Changes:
approx (3.5-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New upstream version
* Handle unreadable directories like lost+found more robustly
(closes: #488115)
* Decompress files in /tmp so gc can be used on a full filesystem
(closes: #490028)
* Handle multiple blank lines between paragraphs in control files
(closes: #501628)
* Use "Pragma: no-cache" in case approx is behind a caching proxy
(closes: #502405)
* Check for correct user and group ID instead of dropping privileges
in auxiliary programs like gc and update; use "su" in cron jobs
* Create directories when importing files into the cache
