Package: apt-proxy
Version: 1.9.32
Severity: normal

Hi,

finally I'm bothered enough to write a bug report about this. apt-proxy
doesn't stop downloading a package when the APT "frontend" "dies". I use
aptitude and thus I can quit the download without exiting the whole
program. While aptitude doesn't request any more packages, apt-proxy
still downloads the last package requested.

I even tried to specifically set 
complete_clientless_downloads = 0
but it didn't help. The only way to stop apt-proxy is to actually stop
it via the init-script. 

This is really annoying on a low-bandwidth-dialup connection.

Andreas
