Package: apt-cacher Version: 1.7.31 Severity: important I've used apt-cacher for the last years, amongst others during the development of Trixie. I stayed on Trixie until today, now I want to upgrade to Forky.

But then the download stalls:

Running

does not change the behaviour.
In /var/log/apt-cacher/access.log I see
