I have to say that I am happy it works for me now and have not looked into it any further. I will admit that I found the description of how things were supposed to work and be set up so difficult to understand that I gave up almost instantly and just tried whether using the latest debian version recompiled for hardy would fix it. That was the case.
My understanding is now that apt-cacher-ng looks at the sources.list file for the computer where it runs and extracts some information there to put in backends_* While I don't completely understand why that is necessary, I wonder if this will work as expected in a LAN environment where apt-cacher-ng serves a number of machines with possibly different distros and mirrors (all deb-based, of course). The mirror I use is ubuntu.intergenia.de. Again, this seems to be fixed for both Brian and me with the post-hardy version, so everything is cool with me, at least. -- ubuntu remapping does not work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/225485 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
