I wasn't aware that ‘apt-cacher’ works as an HTTP proxy, I'd love to know how to use it that way! I thought one needs to modify the requested URLs in ‘sources.list’ directly. So, here is the configuration (currently disabled) on the machine that has slow performance via ‘apt-cacher’: ===== $ grep -v '^\(#.*\|\s*\)$' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/whitetree-lan.list.DISABLED deb http://proxy:3142/security.debian.org/debian-security/ lenny/updates main deb http://proxy:3142/mirror.internode.on.net/pub/debian/ lenny main ===== The above configuration (when enabled by renaming the file) causes the behaviour reported in this bug report; so, I've currently got that machine configured with this: ===== $ grep -v '^\(#.*\|\s*\)$' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/whitetree-lan.NOPROXY.list deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security/ lenny/updates main deb http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/debian/ lenny main ===== The above configuration works properly, in contrast to the configuration using the proxy. > > The debug log doesn't currently exist (at least, I see no file > > named ???/var/log/apt-cacher/debug.log???).

Perhaps “debug=1” or something else? Once I've changed the configuration, is there some particular sequence of actions you want me to perform before giving the resulting debug log output? -- \ “Only the educated are free.” —Epictetus, _Discourses_ | `\ | _o__) | Ben Finney <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
