Package: auto-apt-proxy
Version: 12
Severity: wishlist
This is mainly as a work around for #954904 in apt-cacher-ng
Since the ip address on wifi can change depending on connection, hard
coding it is not a good option.
So if auto-apt-proxy can take first entry of hostaname -I as an option,
that makes it easy to not use the loopback interface. Or another way
could be to have an option to ignore the loopback interface.
I tried creating /usr/local/bin/auto-apt-proxy1 as,
export http_proxy="http://$(hostname -I |awk {'print $1'}):3142"
export HTTP_PROXY=${http_proxy}
echo ${http_proxy}
and then /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/auto-apt-proxy.conf as
Acquire::http::Proxy-Auto-Detect "/usr/local/bin/auto-apt-proxy1";
