#190477 — apt-cacher-ng / autoclean

Hi folks,

I am a little bit stuck. 

I am regularly building a livefile system (kali-linux) and using apt-cacher-
ng, so that I do not need to download all the packages over and over again.

But the local repo is growing more and more, and as I want to get rid of all 
old packages, I wanted to use "apt-get autoclean", as I am using it for a 
normally installed system with downloaded packages.

But obviously, this does not work. What do I do wrong?

I thought, running apt-cacher-ng would point to the local repo, and then "apt-
get autoclean" or "aptitude autoclean" would do tghe rest.

Obviously this is wrong. 

What must I do, if this is possible at all?

Thanks for any hints.

Best regards

Hans

apt-cacher-ng provides a web page to perform maintenance. 

Open with your favorite browser the page:

  http://replace-with-your-cache-host:3142/acng-report.html

For more details, see

Hi Dominique,

thanks for the information. The manual was not quite clear for me, what it 
wants. With your example below, I understood what to do. 

It was not clear for me, that I must use a browser, and thought, a commandline 
command (as usual) would do the trick.

Problem solved, so easy!

Thank you very much for your help (also all others, who helped, too)!

Have a nice new years eve!

Best regards
