It fetches files from remote repositories on demand, and caches them for local use. . Approx saves time and network bandwidth if you need to install or upgrade .deb packages for a number of machines on a local network. Each package is downloaded from a remote site only once, regardless of how many local clients install it. The approx cache typically requires a few gigabytes of disk space. . Approx also simplifies the administration of client machines: repository locations need only be changed in approx's configuration file, not in every client's /etc/apt/sources.list file. . Approx can be used as a replacement for apt-proxy, with no need to modify clients' /etc/apt/sources.list files, or as an alternative to apt-cacher. Description-es: servidor de proxy caché de archivos de repositorios de Debian . . Approx también simplifica la administración de las máquinas cliente: las ubicaciones de los repositorios sólo hay que cambiarlas en el archivo de configuración de approx, no en el archivo /etc/apt/sources.list de cada cliente. . Approx se puede usar como un reemplazo de apt-proxy, sin necesidad de modificar los archivos /etc/apt/sources.list de los clientes, o como un «cacheador» de apt alternativo. # other Descriptions of the approx package with a translation in es: # # Description-id: 57059 https://ddtp.debian.org/ddt.cgi?desc_id=57059 # patch https://ddtp.debian.org/ddt.cgi?diff1=57059&diff2=60710&language=es # This Description was in sid from 2009-03-12 to 2009-06-09; # This Description was in squeeze from 2009-04-07 to 2009-06-13; # # Description-id: 35625 https://ddtp.debian.org/ddt.cgi?desc_id=35625 # patch https://ddtp.debian.org/ddt.cgi?diff1=35625&diff2=60710&language=es # This Description was in lenny from 2007-07-04 to 2007-12-19; # This Description was in sid from 2007-06-23 to 2007-12-13; # # Description-id: 20266 https://ddtp.debian.org/ddt.cgi?desc_id=20266 # patch https://ddtp.debian.org/ddt.cgi?diff1=20266&diff2=60710&language=es # This Description was in lenny from 2007-06-14 to 2011-07-22; # This Description was in sid from 2006-02-21 to 2009-10-02; # This Description was in squeeze from 2009-02-16 to 2009-04-06; # This Description was in etch from 2006-01-16 to 2011-07-22; #
