Package: apt-proxy
Version: 1.9.32-0
Followup-For: Bug #349447

Hi,

Are you sure this is apt-proxy? This sounds more like a problem with
your frontend. Anyway, did an install of anjuta (which was never
installed here before) which pulled in anjuta-common and that worked Ok.

This too sounds more like a problem of the frontend, especially if
apt-get clean helps which does _nothing_ with apt-proxy's cache. Can't
confirm that with aptitude here.

> Therefore I'm not sure removing the calls is sufficient.

I actually am pretty sure, because I read the source and the exact same
thing that happened in arm() is now done in each of the addXXX methods.
Now I'm of course neither a apt-proxy nor an twisted expert (neither am
I a complete python expert), but I think I can compare 2 python code
snippets for similarity. 

Anyway, apt-proxy with removed arm() calls works here and I'm able to
build my own version as long as it is not officially fixed.
