Public bug reported: I've setup apt-cacher-ng on an Ubuntu 16.04 box. During the installation of all the software I use on Ubuntu it cached around 2GB of stuff: du -sh /srv/packages/apt-cacher-ng-xenial/ 2.1G /srv/packages/apt-cacher-ng-xenial/
The problem is that now whenever it runs the expiration process it wants to delete about 1.8GB of this. I've checked several of the packages it wants to delete and they're all still installed, and still available in the repos (they're all from the official Ubuntu main and universe repos): Tagging uburep/pool/universe/b/breeze/kwin-style-breeze_5.5.5-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb Tagging uburep/pool/main/g/gtk-sharp2/libgtk2.0-cil_2.12.10-6_amd64.deb Tagging uburep/pool/universe/b/breeze/qml-module-qtquick-controls-styles-breeze_5.5.5-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb Tagging uburep/pool/universe/b/breeze/breeze_5.5.5-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb Tagging uburep/pool/main/f/firefox/firefox_45.0.2+build1-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb Tagging uburep/pool/universe/b/breeze/kde-style-breeze-qt4_5.5.5-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb Tagging uburep/pool/universe/b/breeze/kde-style-breeze_5.5.5-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb Tagging uburep/pool/universe/q/qttools-opensource-src/libqt5designercomponents5_5.5.1-3build1_amd64.deb Tagging uburep/pool/main/g/gettext/libgettextpo-dev_0.19.7-2ubuntu3_amd64.deb Tagging uburep/pool/universe/b/bluedevil/bluedevil_5.5.5-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb Tagging uburep/pool/universe/b/bleachbit/bleachbit_1.10-1_all.deb Tagging uburep/pool/universe/b/boost1.58/libboost-python1.58.0_1.58.0+dfsg-5ubuntu3_amd64.deb Tagging uburep/pool/main/libx/libxcomposite/libxcomposite1_0.4.4-1_amd64.deb Tagging uburep/pool/universe/b/banshee/banshee-extension-soundmenu_2.9.0+really2.6.2-7ubuntu2_amd64.deb 2738 package file(s) marked for removal in few days. Estimated disk space to be released: 1.8 GiB. I never had this problem with Ubuntu Wily and Trusty, with exactly the same setup. Is there any way I can get the expiration working properly? How can I debug why it's doing this?
