Dear Mark, > Can you clarify exactly what you did here? Was that before or after the > dist-upgrade?
I am ways on testing and never changes that. On Sat 10th of June ~20:00 (the day testing switched to trixie) I simply replaced the directory /var/cache/apt-cacher (with all content like cached packages files, indexes, headers, etc.) by /var/cache/apt-cacher/ ├── headers ├── import ├── packages └── private with headers, import, packages, private beeing completly empty subdirectories. Not less and not more. As it is the same structure as apt-get install apt-cacher inititally has created it was never a problem before and also should imho not be the culprit now. Calling /usr/share/apt-cacher/apt-cacher-cleanup.pl removes ALL downloaded/cached package files. I know about that at least a week ago. It can but needs not have to be related to testing's switch to trixie. The bug is fully reproducable (on my system) and also shows up today: $ apt-get update $ ls -la /var/cache/apt-cacher/packages/ftp.de.debian.org_debian total 60 drwxr-xr-x 2 www-data www-data 20480 2.
