Thanks, this has led me down a productive path. One of the problems, at least, happens because APT pipelines its requests. It assumes the server implements HTTP/1.1 with persistent (keep-alive) connections, but the OCaml HTTP server library doesn't handle this yet. So can you please try adding this line to your clients' /etc/apt/apt.conf files and see if it helps? Acquire::http::Pipeline-Depth "0"; It should at least prevent the Error reading from server - read (104 Connection reset by peer) messages, which is an improvement. I am working on fixes to the approx code to make this workaround unnecessary.
