apt and /var

[Will Lowe <harpo@UDel.Edu>]

I like apt.  A whole lot.  But it insists on downloading packages into
/var/somethingorother,  and since my /var partition is small,  I can't
download more than 1 or two packages...

I've had to resort to using dpkg-ftp because it allows me to specify that
downloaded things should be stuck in /tmp ... is there any way to tell
this to apt?  And if not,  can we throw it on the wishlist?
