This is the last call for comments for the review of debconf templates for apt-cacher-ng. The reviewed templates will be sent on Thursday, October 22, 2009 to the package maintainer as a bug report and a mail will be sent to this list with "[BTS]" as a subject tag. Eduard: I feel reluctant to issue a call for translations without knowing that you are happy about the templates, so I'd really appreciate a N/ACK from you. Thanks. -- Jonathan Wiltshire 1024D: 0xDB800B52 / 4216 F01F DCA9 21AC F3D3 A903 CA6B EA3E DB80 0B52 4096R: 0xD3524C51 / 0A55 B7C5 1223 3942 86EC 74C3 5394 479D D352 4C51

Description: caching proxy server for software repositories
Apt-Cacher NG is a caching proxy for downloading packages from Debian-style
software repositories (or possibly from other types).
.
The main principle is that a central machine hosts the proxy for a local
network, and clients configure their APT setup to download through it.
Apt-Cacher NG keeps a copy of all useful data that passes through it, and when
a similar request is made, the cached copy of the data is delivered without
being re-downloaded.
.
Apt-Cacher NG has been designed from scratch as a replacement for
apt-cacher, but with a focus on maximizing throughput with low system
resource requirements. It can also be used as replacement for apt-proxy and
approx with no need to modify clients' sources.list files.
Template: apt-cacher-ng/gentargetmode Type: select __Choices: Set up once, Set up now and update later, No automated setup _Default: Set up once _Description: Automatic remapping of client requests: Apt-Cacher NG can download packages from repositories other than those requested by the clients. This allows it to cache content effectively, and makes it easy for an administrator to change repository later. . This remapping of URLs can be configured now in an automated way based on the current state of /etc/apt/sources.list. Optionally, this process can be repeated on every package update (modifying the configuration files each time). . Selecting "No automated setup" will leave the existing configuration unchanged. It will need to be updated manually.
