You're right, it only supports GETs currently. It seems to me that if approx gets a HEAD for something not in the cache, it will have to download it from the remote repository just so it can report that it exists (or confirm that it doesn't). Is that the desired behavior? -- Eric Cooper e c c @ c m u . e d u -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
