Description

Caches package downloads for Debian-style repositories so multiple machines can reuse the same downloaded files. It is useful for labs, offices, or build networks that install many similar packages.

Package caches sit between clients and repositories. Configure access controls, storage limits, HTTPS behavior, and cache cleanup to avoid stale or exposed package data.

How to run

apt-cacher-ng.service
