Medibuntu with apt-proxy

Can you provide your apt-proxy configuration ?

Did you retry many times ?

I have the same issue where apt-get update hangs getting the medibuntu update. Retrying does not help but if I restart apt-proxy (/etc/init.d/apt-proxy restart) then apt-get update will complete once but not again until I restart apt-proxy.

Here is my apt-proxy-v2.conf

;; All times are in seconds, but you can add a suffix
;; for minutes(m), hours(h) or days(d)

port = 9999

min_refresh_delay = 1s

;; Minimum age of a file before attempting an update (NOT YET IMPLEMENTED)

;; Uncomment to make apt-proxy continue downloading even if all
;; clients disconnect. This is probably not a good idea on a
;; dial up line.

;; Cache directory for apt-proxy
cache_dir = /var/cache/apt-proxy

;; Use passive FTP? (default=on)
;passive_ftp = on

;; Use HTTP proxy?
;http_proxy = host:port

;; Limit download rate from backend servers (http and rsync only), in bytes/sec
;bandwidth_limit = 100000

;; Enable HTTP pipelining within apt-proxy (for test purposes)

;; Maximum number of versions of a .deb to keep per distribution
