Could you upgrade to 1.6.8 and see if that is better. Checksum
database
handling was changed in 1.6.5.
What is the right way to do this, rebuild my own .deb from
source? I don't see apt-cacher at backports.org.
I think it is related to checksumming, so you could turn that off if
it
is a recurrent and disruptive problem.
I will turn this off now and let you know what happens.

At this point you need to run
/usr/share/apt-cacher/apt-cacher-cleanup.pl -r
after killing the processes but before restarting to clean locks and
mutexes from the checksum database.
Ok. Is there somewhere I should rtfm?
Thanks for the help.
