I'm using version 1.3.6 on a Woody system that is pretty much dedicated
to apt-proxy. (It had other functions before I moved to an ISP who
provides Canopy Wireless and requires a router box. When I discovered
that that box does NAT and other good stuff, I decided to go with it.)
I have no experience with 1.9 and no understanding of the problems
with apt-proxy. I hope that they are resolved eventually because it is
a very nice idea and has worked well for me.
