Update - Mark Hindley pointed out that my use of rsync to add packages
from /var/cache/apt/archives on client boxen had imported *.deb packages
owned by root into /var/cache/apt-cacher/import (on the the apt-cacher
server).
Running apt-cacher-import.pl then moved those files into
/var/cache/apt-cacher/packages with the same ownership - and caused the
(my) problem.
*Solution*:-
before running apt-cacher-import.pl:-
# chown -R www-data:www-data /var/cache/apt-cacher/import
Mark also sent the following patch for apt-cacher-import.pl which will
warn of incorrect permissions (tested as working):-
