Bug Description
Binary package hint: approx
When I have my approx cache on it's own filesystem, gc_approx complains:
/var/cache/
I think approx should either except explicitly known filesystem artifacts such as lost+found, or simply skip over directories which it does not have permission to operate in.

Hi Brian, this was fixed in v3.5-1 of the package:
approx (3.5-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream version
* Handle unreadable directories like lost+found more robustly
(closes: #488115)
Marking as Fix Released.
