I do have sqlite3 enabled and, as part of the the debug, I'll see if that might be causing some of my problems.
I have noticed some odd behavior, even without the cacher, with both apt-get and aptitude. While updating, the downloads go all the way to the end and then say the package list isn't there and I have to update again and sometime 3-4 times. I found that a lot with ftp.us.debian.org so am trying some others to see if that (pain) stops. I'll post back on the results. As I had to use lynx to see your page I 'think' your going to be a bit busy for awhile. Good luck on the exams and forget about cacher for a while. Thanks much for the reply!
