[Apt-proxy-users] apt-proxy 1.3.2pre1 is up for testing

[Chris H. <chr...@gm...>]

Hi all,

I've investigated the bugs reported on this list over the past few days and
have put up a new version in the sourceforge repository (unstable section):

http://apt-proxy.sourceforge.net/apt-proxy/unstable/apt-proxy_1.3.1.2pre1_a=
ll.deb

Steven and Christian, please let me know if the problems you reported are
solved.

Changelog:

apt-proxy (1.3.1.2pre1) unstable; urgency=3Dlow

  * Depend on binutils for ar (closes: #143573)
  * Accept '~' characters in URLs
  * Clean up URLs used internally
  * apt-proxy-import: copy files instead of linking if using dpkg-name from
    Potato
  * Copy links to .debs as files, not links on rysnc backends.  This made it
    impossible to download some potato .debs on ftp.de.debian.org.
  * Refuse to run apt-proxy as the root user.  This is not a good idea
    security-wise.
  * Check for write permission in backend directories

Thanks,
Chris
