Package: apt-cacher Version: 0.9.3 Severity: grave Tags: patch Justification: renders package unusable
A fresh install of apt-cacher leaves /var/cache/apt-cacher/* owned by root, thus making it unusable on default install, hence the severity grave. It appears that in /usr/share/apt-cacher/install.pl, the test on line 48 (-e $config{cache_dir}) happens to be true on a fresh install, because /var/cache/apt-cacher/ already exists when the configure is run. As it is owned by root, it makes the resulting chown commands useless. Remove var/cache/apt-cacher from debian/dirs seems to fix the problem.
