Idea #6879: Apt-cacher Server/Client GUI

Written by dry_carton the 12 Apr 08 at 12:45. Category: Internet & Networking. Related project: Nothing/Others. Status: New
Rationale
Apt-cacher should be implemented as a home network and server edition extra. Desktop Ubuntu should include a simple GUI to set this up and a simple GUI to choose/find automatically these servers on your current network. Kind of like Vinagre.

Maybe ship apt-zeroconf instead? (same idea, but no configuration required)

Oh, yeah that would probably be better.
