Package: apt-cacher-ng Version: 0.4.7-1 Severity: normal
Hello Eduard,
My "apt cache" is also updated by another unix user
as the unix user 'apt-cacher-ng'.
To allow both operating system user to update the archive,
I have put them in the same unix group and SGID the dir.
However apt-cacher-ng does 'mkdir' hardcoded with mode 755
and blocks so the user on updating in the same directory.
My workaround is now

The '0777 and not(umask)' will create group writeable directory when
the umask is 002. With default umask, 022, becomes the directory
