The code for the cron job has changed since the bug was reported:
Cache=/var/cache/apt/archives/
eval $(apt-config shell Cache Dir::Cache::archives/d)
Does this allow for the intended behaviour of having a CacheArchive
outside of CacheDir?
** Changed in: apt (Ubuntu)
Status: New
Thanks, this fix works (however, it was not integrated in Ubuntu 10.04,
which I use).

Title:
/etc/cron.daily/apt assumes that CacheArchive
Does the cron job from newer apt work on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS? Not sure if
it's a SRU candidate as the problem doesn't seem to be that critical to
me.

Ok, I will close this bug as won't fix then, as I don't think the risk
of a regression in the apt cron job is at the same level as the benefit
of the fix.
