Package: debmirror
Version: 20051209

Debmirror does not use any special http flags to make sure caching proxies or (in the ftp.se.d.o case) mod_cache servers serve old versions of Release* (or Packages* for that matter). In the case of Release it is bad since if it gets out of sync from Release.gpg it will fail to validate.

I suggest setting "Cache-Control: max-age=0" to request a fresh copy of the Release* and perhaps other index files, as per apt behaviour.

The default behaviour of getting cached copies is a good thing wrt normal packages though, so please fix this for the index files only.
