Package: apt-proxy
Version: 1.9.25
Followup-For: Bug #284432
The problem with the logrotate script is, that /etc/init.d/apt-proxy
doesn't wait on "stop" resp. "restart" until the apt-proxy server
really died before starting the new one.
If the old one didn't yet terminate, the new one won't start and
complains insted, which causes the logrotate mail.
On the other side, the old process finally will die, so no apt-proxy
server is available afterwards.
The following patch will help (partly taken from /etc/init.d/autofs):
