Hash: SHA1
Package: apt-proxy
Version: 1.9.29
Severity: normal
This is one of three computers in my family's little LAN.
All are switched on for only a few hours a day, as neccessity
demands.
I am running apt-proxy on this particular machine.
This saves quite a bit of (both Debian and my) bandwidth,
and (my) time. Good stuff. I only need to have it switched
on and running when I do apt-things on any of the other
machines, that depend on the cache.
Today, I was running out of disk space on /var.
With "df" and "du | sort -n", I quickly found out that
/var/cache/apt-proxy is much larger than I would like
it to be.
A solution for bug #198859 would help...
As a workaround, I set, in /etc/apt/apt-proxy-v2.conf:
cleanup_freq = 1d
max_age = 40d
Both numbers had been considerably higher previously.
I issued /etc/init.d/apt-proxy stop and
/etc/init.d/apt-proxy start, to make the two changes
valid immediately.
I don't think I had a cache cleanup yesterday.
So I expected quite some disk activity, and presumed
the disk space consumed by the apt-proxy cache would
come down considerably.
But neither of the two happened.
At this point, I'm still running with a close to
overflowing /var file system.
Regards, and thank you for providing fine software
Andreas Krüger
