Does it cache things?
Because I had to remodel a script at the last moment in order to get a DIY repository working over NFS. And, I'm getting the ghist that apt-move somehow cache's things, thus reducing the amount of read/writes if I use apt-move cache.
Am I right about this?
I read the man page. I didn't get it. Someone want to explain in detail about this? Please?
Here's my script.
It does apt-move fsck.
Then it makes the repository.
Then I delete whatever apt-move left behind.
Code:
