Great work as always, @unman
I’m working out of the new 4.2 repo and all debian-based templates work when using the cacher salt configs.
Fedora templates, however, issue Curl errors (5), (500), and (56). I think somewhere I read you suggested changing the repository metalinks or alternating to the baseurls instead? I can’t find the source of that post now.
EDIT:
Found this in an old email list exchange, for anyone looking to troubleshoot apt-cacher-ng:
Yes, apt-cacher-ng works for Fedora updates.
You have to make some changes -
First, on the client side, comment out “metalink” lines, and uncomment
“baseurl” lines. This is because the metalink will keep loading new
https:// repositories, and apt-cacher-ng cant cache those requests,
as you know.
Second, watch the caches in /var/cache/apt-cacher-ng , and add any new
ones to the fedora_mirrors file - this is because that file doesn’t
contain all Fedora repositories.After a while you will have almost all your Fedora updates cached, and
will see the speed increase.
