apt-cacher would typically be used by putting something like
Acquire::http::Proxy "http://apt-cache.localdomain:3142/";
in /etc/apt.conf or a file in apt.conf.d and then putting the usual urls
in sources.list (http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ or whatever; see
/usr/share/doc/apt-cacher-ng/examples/000apt-cacher-ng-proxy).
apt-cacher then transparently caches the requests. What's probably
happening is that redirects are being sent which the cacher expects to
intercept as the proxy, but you're not using it as a proxy.
