Been meaning to getting around to asking about this for awhile
now
Whenever Apt fetches new packages, is there a way for it to save them?

Did you include "Unix domain sockets" when you configured your 2.2.1
kernel? If not, you probably need to enable it and recompile. It it's
included as a module, you may need to add "alias net-pf-1 unix" to
/etc/modutils/aliases, then run "update-modules" as root.
