Hi Andrew
Thanks for your ping. Actually, I already fixed this bug in subversion
but have not had time to finish testing and preparing a release. Here's
the current changelog:
apt-proxy (1.9.36~svn) unstable; urgency=low
[ Chris Halls ]
* Acknowledge NMU by Steinar H. Gunderson, thanks! (Closes: #386344)
* Close a longstanding bug where clients would hang when receiving
files from the cache. The problem was caused by reusing the same
file handle for several requests at once.
(Closes: #274679, #382078, #322242, #397399, #397403, #398217)
* Change the meaning of min_refresh_delay parameter, so the
delay is measured from the modification time of the file on the
backend instead of the time a client last requested this file.
Now apt-proxy will always query backends when a file is too
old (Closes: #266000)
* Set process name to apt-proxy
* Properly deal with escaped characters, including ~ in URLs on FTP
backends. Unescape URLs and check for invalid characters when parsing
a request. A big thanks to Ben Hutchings for the patch
(Closes: #393483, #366262)
* Fix [EMAIL PROTECTED] given in backend server URLs and add a test case.
Thanks Jason Thomas for the patch (Closes: #348985)
* Fix exception when sending ftp password to backend (Closes: #387243)
* Remove extra '/' in HTTP GET requests (Closes: #330492)
* Uncompress Packages.gz and Packages.bz2 on the fly, and
update databases from these files (Closes: #319005, #303357)
* Add unit tests for valid URLs containing /../ (Closes: #182855)
* Remove obsolete GZipFetcher from fetchers.py
[ Mark Sheppard ]
* Generate an error if a client attempts to retrieve
http://server:9999/ (Closes: #386546)
* When returning an error, generate an HTML page containing the error
Please feel free to give it a try:
svn co svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/apt-proxy/trunk apt-proxy
cd apt-proxy
<as root> ./aptest
That will run the new version using your existing configuration.
Chris
