Package: apt-cacher
Version: 1.5.3
Severity: important

*** Please type your report below this line ***
I tried to configure apt-cacher to run under openbsd-inetd with the
following
line in inetd.conf:

3142   stream  tcp     nowait  www-data /usr/sbin/apt-cacher -i

but when I try to connect to apt-cacher I get errors as follows:

$ telnet localhost 3142
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.localdomain.
Escape character is '^]'.
Unable to bind socket (port 3142), /usr/sbin/apt-cacher not started.
Connection closed by foreign host.
$

Switching to the stand-alone server mode worked around the problem but with
the expected volume of usage I'd rather avoid having apt-cacher running all
the time.

Thanks.
