Comment 3 for bug 370483

(continued)

it looks like I am pretty tired these days (hence my very late answer)

it looks like : I created a link for /var/cache/apt a while ago, and I forgot I did : I just understood know :

root@rubedo:/var/log# ll /var/cache/
total 151,552
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4,096 2009-05-02 02:26 PackageKit
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4,096 2007-05-13 22:15 analog
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4,096 2007-04-18 05:28 app-install
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 2007-11-17 11:57 apt -> /home/var_cache_apt/
drwxr-xr-x 4 beagleindex nogroup 4,096 2007-06-30 07:39 beagle
drwxrwxr-x 2 root bind 4,096 2007-02-20 14:40 bind
(...)

I promise I am not cheating : the date is correct ! I understood when I wanted to create the directory /home/var_cache_apt : it already existed !
