Public bug reported:
auto-apt-proxy waits too long if there is no answer on the network.
My apt-cacher-ng is not on localhost, or the gateway but a separate
machine on the LAN. Apparently, auto-apt-proxy cannot detect the cache
in that case (whereas squid-deb-proxy-client can). This lead to "apt
update" hanging for about 10 minutes each time. Please make sure to
time out after no more than 2 seconds.
# apt update
