You could cron an 'apt-get autoclean', which will remove all but the most
recent version of .debs in /var/cache/apt/archives. You can remove them all
with 'apt-get clean'.
Someone I knew tried to run apt-proxy on RHEL once. It was not pretty.
Nothing about it worked. It's just a Python script, so it shouldn't have
broken, but it did. (Possibly because it was installed with alien...)
Cross-distro portability isn't all its cracked up to be!
