Bug Description
Setting the following line in /etc/apt-
CacheDir: /data/apt-cacher-ng
is completely ignored, even after stopping/starting the apt-cache-ng service. All cached contents are still saved at /var/cache/
The only workaround for me so far is to create a symlink from /data/apt-cacher-ng to /var/cache/
My system environment looks like this:
root@serverprox
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu

Reading NEWS.Debian for you:
apt-cacher-ng (0.7.24-1) unstable; urgency=low
* Starting with version 0.7.23-1, there is a new sequence of Debconf dialogs
for basic settings (CacheDir, Port, Proxy and BindAdresses). They are
stored in an additional *.conf file overriding the settings from acng.conf
but there is also a way to disable this override.
