Package: apt-proxy Version: 1.9.28 Severity: wishlist I (miss)use apt-proxy on my laptop to cache pkgs for the PC at home (only only a very slow internet connection), pbuilder cache etc. Last time I forgot to increase min_refresh_delay and the apt-get update on the client triggered apt-proxy to update sarge main package list. Instead of waiting an hour I aborted apt-get update and set min_refresh_delay = 10000h disconnected form internet and restarted apt-proxy. Now apt-get update failed because the apt-proxy server failed to deliver the sarge main Packages file :(
The delete-before-update-finished made the up to date pkgs in the apt-proxy cache useless because the Packages file was gone. Wish: apt-proxy should only delete the 'old' Packages file when the download of the new version has finished.
