Hi Mark

Actually, it's been in since 1.9.32 but was never documented. I hadn't realised
it was not mentioned in the manpage. Just enter a backend server using a
standard file:// url.

Bug#386562: apt-proxy: support for file:// backends

[Mark Sheppard]

Package: apt-proxy
Version: 1.9.35
Severity: wishlist

Please could support for file:// URLs in backends be supported?  I've
got ISO images (mounted with -o loop) from which I'd like to serve
packages with apt-proxy.

Cheers,
Mark.
