Package: apt-p2p
Version: 0.1.5
Severity: normal

The apt-p2p(8) manual page instructs to use:

  deb http://localhost:9977....

But in home network it is desireable to use CNAMEs for services. Let's dat this
is named apt-p2p and we use:

  deb http://apt-p2pt:9977....

  [at localhost running apt-p2p service; which is also CNAME host apt-p2p]
  $ apt-get update
  W: Failed to fetch 
http://apt-p2p:9977/ftp.fi.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/non-free/source/Sources
  404 Not Found
  ...
  $ lynx http://apt-p2p:9977
  <no problems, statistic page is shown>

The use of CNAME doesn't seem to work, although apt-p2pt answers to
ping and is defined in 192.168.1.x The documentation is missing about
information how CNAME could be used instead of 'localhost'.
