Sorry for the slow response, but the nuisance messages have disappeared. I believe that in my case the relevant files were completely absent. While looking at the apt-cacher-cleanup.pl code I noticed a few small items in the comments: 1) # add one argument like 1 to make it verbose I tried this, but it didn't work. I think the comment is obsolete, and the way to get verbose is with -v (which did work for me). 2) # do locking, not loosing files because someone redownloaded the index files That's "losing" I think. 3) # file state decissions, lock that area "decisions" 4) # headers for previosly expired files "previously" -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
