Package: approx
Version: 3.0.0+b1
Severity: wishlist

I use simple-cdd to generate custom Debian CD images. simple-cdd needs a
Debian mirror and it downloads packages (here everything is fine) but also
files in /doc, /tools, /indices and dists/*/main/installer-*/ from the
mirror (here it fails if I point it to the approx URL as it's not a real
mirror).

If approx could have a configuration option to make this work it would be
wonderful. Either behave like a normal cache (keep files as long as they
are used) or simply provide a pass-through mechanism without any
caching (having to re-download only the doc and installer stuff is not
a big deal. However having to redownload everything from a real mirror
is a pain).

Cheers,
