please consider a newer version of approx for stable-proposed-updates



The introduction of InRelease files makes the current stable version
of approx (4.5-1) mostly useless for caching the wheezy and sid
distributions.  A typical use case is with pbuilder or d-i work.

The version in sid, 4.6-1, understands InRelease files and builds in
squeeze with no changes.  But it has a number of other changes
since 4.5-1.

Alternatively, I can add a one-line patch to 4.5-1 that simply denies
requests for InRelease files (forcing the clients to fall back to
Release + Release.gpg files).

Please advise whether either of these would be acceptable.
