Package: apt-cacher
Version: 1.6.4
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
the default apt-cacher.conf file in debian has the following block:
"""
# Rate limiting sets the maximum bandwidth in bytes per second to use
# for fetching packages. Syntax is fully defined in 'man wget'.
# Use 'k' or 'm' to use kilobits or megabits / second: eg, 'limit=25k'.
# Use 0 or a negative value for no rate limiting.
"""
but reading the man page for wget gives:
"""
--limit-rate=amount
Limit the download speed to amount bytes per second. Amount may be
expressed in bytes, kilobytes with the k suffix, or megabytes with
the m suffix.
"""
IE the unit (for wget) is *bytes* not bits. apt-cacher uses libcurl -
the man page for `curl` says something similar to wget's option.
Can the comment please be updated to say "kilobytes or megabytes"
instead of "kilobits or megabits".
Thanks
John
