Indeed, I didn't notice that. But http://apt:9999/debian/doc/ and http://apt:9999/debian/tools/ return 404 which make any recursive wget to fail (and that's what's used to fetch those directories in the tool that I'm using). Please return the same index as would be displayed by a real web-browser. (I'm ok if you don't implement it for the FTP protocol and if you return a 404 in that case).
