[Bug 125749] Re: apt-cacher clear obsolete deb packages error

[Patrick Welche]

Not solved for me on gutsy 7.10 with apt-cacher installed on Thursday 3
July 2008:

% sudo rm /var/cache/apt-cacher/packages/*Packages*gz
% sudo /usr/share/apt-cacher/apt-cacher-cleanup.pl -v
D: gb.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_edgy-updates_main_source_Sources.gz

R: gb.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_edgy-updates_main_source_Sources.gz

gzip: 
/var/cache/apt-cacher/temp/gb.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_edgy-updates_main_source_Sources.gz:
 unexpected end of file
Error processing 
gb.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_edgy-updates_main_source_Sources.gz in 
/var/cache/apt-cacher/packages, cleanup stopped.
Remove the file if the repository is no longer interesting and the packages 
pulled from it are to be removed.

So, the underlying problem seems to be that edgy packages are .gz, newer
packages are .bz2, and if you have a few edgy clients edging their way
towards being updated thanks to the nice new apt-cache you get an
unhappy apt-cacher?

I think the Packages are now made in bz2 format rather than gz.

So i deleted the gz ones and it worked (and i hope it will for you too)
sudo rm /var/cache/apt-cacher/packages/*Packages*gz
