[Apt-proxy-users] apt-proxy-import failure

[David B. <da...@ba...>]

Hi,

I'm trying to get aprt-proxy running on my home network, but am having
problems. I'm using Debian/Sarge and apt-proxy 1.9.25.

Thanks to Chris Halls' README [0], I've got to the point where I want to
import my existing package cache into the a-p cache, but
apt-proxy-import fails, as follows:

blue:/var/cache# apt-proxy-import -i /var/cache/apt/archives/
Updating twisted's process module.
No updating required.
Traceback (most recent call last):
     File "/usr/sbin/apt-proxy-import", line 69, in ?
       factoryConfig(factory)
     File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/apt_proxy/apt_proxy_conf.py",
line 141, in factoryConfig
       factory.addBackend(backend)
AttributeError: DummyFactory instance has no attribute 'addBackend'


What would be the best way of getting a-p running?
    1) Some fix for a-p 1.9.x (I don't know any Python but should be able
to have a stab at it)
    2) Manually copy my existing cache (would this work?)
    3) Revert to v1.3.0
    4) Other?

Any suggestions would be appreiciated.

Cheers,
Dave.
