[debian-lan-devel] Switch from apt-cacher-ng to optimized Squid?

[Andreas B. Mundt]

Hi,

as apt-cacher-ng seems not to work as expected, both the version in
whezzy and the backported version, I think about switching to Squid.
We use Squid already, and it's easy to add some configuration to
optimize it for packages.

I already committed the necessary code and started to test this
modification at my setup.  I took the necessary configuration
optimization from squid-deb-proxy [1].

If it works fine, I think we should also cherry-pick this for
wheezy-backports.  If anybody has some experience concerning the use
of Squid as package cache please let us know.

Best regards,

     Andi
