Package: apt-proxy Maintainer: Chris Halls <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Architecture: all Version: 1.3.6 Depends: wget | rsync, grep-dctrl, tcpd, netbase, ash, binutils Recommends: apt Suggests: wget, rsync, dpkg-dev, stat Description: Debian archive proxy and partial mirror builder apt-proxy automatically builds a Debian HTTP mirror based on requests which pass through the proxy. It's great for multiple Debian machines on the same network with a slower internet link. . The archive is automatically kept up to date using http, ftp or rsync. Cache cleaning of unused and old versions is configurable. You can also import the contents of your apt cache into the archive using apt-proxy-import. . For more information, see the apt-proxy homepage at http://apt-proxy.sourceforge.net . The suggested packages are needed for the following features: wget for http/ftp backend support, rsync for rsyncd backends, dpkg-dev for apt-proxy-import and stat for improved apt-proxy performance. Cheers, Cristian
