Hi,
using apt-cacher as a proxy works great. I've just added 01proxy under /etc/apt.conf.d and it works as expected:
$ cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01proxy
Acquire::http::Proxy "http://example.com:3142";
But when I add some .deb packages with apt-cacher-import.pl, which reports that packages were added successfully and a simple:
find /var/cache/apt-cache -name "*.deb"
shows them in private, headers and packages folders, apt-cacher acts as there are no packages.
I've tried:
apt-get clean
apt-get check
apt-get update
apt-get install <package>
with no luck.
Some of the posts on the net, mention adding a localhost entry in sources.list, but none of them shows or explains how.
I'm using apt-cacher version 1.6.4.
When installing other packages, they also show in headers and packages folder and are being served from cache.
apt-cacher.conf:
# grep -Ev "^#|^$" /etc/apt-cacher/apt-cacher.conf
cache_dir=/var/cache/apt-cacher
admin_email=root@localhost
daemon_port=3142

$ grep -v "^$" /etc/apt/sources.list

Does anyone have any experience with this?

In order to check if a package is available for your mirrors (/etc/apt/source-list), you should check with:
[apt-cache sear PACKAGE_NAME]

Hi,
of course, but it should be available for installation with apt-get install.
But never mind, I've moved to a local mirror using apt-mirror.
