Package: apt-cacher
Version: 0.8.5
Followup-For: Bug #267680
I don't think either of the first two suggestions in the original report
will work, as it's highly likely you'll want to download a
Contents-<arch>.gz from more than one repository. Thus they must be
given the same treatment as Packages.gz et al.
I also think that it should be upgraded from wishlist to at least minor
if not normal priority, since it completely prevents another package
(apt-file) from working once installed. (If it's already installed, it
continues to work, but won't update.) I haven't, however, changed the
severity myself, as I am prepared to debate it.
Patch follows:
