It looks like apt-proxy has indeed been removed from the Ubuntu
repository as of Maverick:

I think it has been removed from the repository.
Can you confirm this? If it's removed, it isn't relevant here anymore and the
bug can be closed...

Apt-proxy is a dead project. We really should remove this from the
repositories and ubuntu wiki pages as it is not working anymore and
people like us searching for an "apt proxy" server continue to stumble
upon it.

We switched to using Approx, and it has been doing a pretty good job.

We've used apt-proxy for the last 3 or so years, but there seems to be
little improvement in this situation. I'm also giving apt-cacher-ng a
try to see if it's any better.

I looked a bit at the code today to try to make apt-proxy-import create
hardlinks instead of copies, and although I am not a Python expert, I
found it really messy : there is a lot of useless code in there to
replicate functions that already exist in Python. I am not surprised to
learn it is buggy.
> I think I will seriously look into apt-cacher-ng
apt-cacher-ng is absolutely fantastic. Development is very fast (latest
snapshot in my ppa, a number of bugs fixed compared to the hardy
version), the program itself is lightning fast (apt-proxy was a dog).
Administration IMHO is also a bit easie
Here is the log from the unittests (have not had a chance yet to look at

Tom, I chatted a bit with the twisted crowd on IRC and they were very
helpful. They made me aware of the unit tests provided by the program
itself. The ubuntu package fails quite many. I think this might be an
approach to break down this task int
You can use apt-cacher instead. It's slightly different, but have more
power and does it's job very well.

One thing we could look into is the twisted libraries. It looks from
the source like apt-proxy uses twisted for most of its networking
features. Twisted is still under active development:

As far as alternatives go, the apt-proxy homepage lists a few, but it
does not look like any of them have much momentum.

Is there any alternative or is everybody on broadband these days and
does not think about the amount of stuff they download from the ubuntu
mirrors?
I guess squid comes to mind. But I guess a specialized solution like
apt-proxy would be nice.

After some cursory reading of the code and consulting some Python

around a while. I've not seen dev work on it in 2 years.
Good luck and let us know how you get on.

I can confirm this bug. It's a headache, because I'd like to use apt-
proxy to let my high school classroom full of machines tax our
overburdened school connection less. It works brilliantly except when it
hangs spectacularly, and I ideally want a server I can just forget
about.

I can confirm this on gutsy and hardy. "/etc/init.d/apt-proxy restart"

I can confirm this under gutsy. It hangs when someone aborts a download,
it's fine after a restart.

I also seems to experience this. Except that apt-proxy is not really
hung, but being busy with "something" for quite some time quiten often.
Can you guys look at top and process from the apt-proxy user on the
proxy machine?
I wonder if this is related but fetches from the cache are often a lot

I can confirm that apt-proxy hangs a lot. I haven't noticed if it is
related to client aborts or not (will keep an eye on that). Just now the
process itself was hung on me, to the extent that /etc/init.d/apt-proxy
stop didn't even work (I had to kill -9 the pid myself).
