apt-cacher cannot honour donwload

[Paolo Benvenuto]

Binary package hint: apt-cacher

I installed apt-cacher, and prepared the same server and the clients to use apt-cacher putting the line

Acquire::http::Proxy "http://my-apt-cacher-server:3142/";

in /etc/apt/apt.conf

I didn't modify the file sources.list

All is working correctly, except the command

$ sudo aptitude download blender

Err http://it.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/universe blender 2.45-4ubuntu1
  Could not open file ./blender_2.45-4ubuntu1_i386.deb - open (13 Permission denied)

Note that on the contrary "sudo aptitude install blender" works correctly.

The same command issued on the apt-cacher server was executed correctly.
