With this patch, /var/cache/apt/archives directory content is preserved.
The directory is actually a bind mount of the
~/.cache/image-create/apt/$DISTRO_NAME directory, much like what we do
for ccache.
You can use DIB_APT_LOCAL_CACHE=0 to disable this behavior.
This trivial change improve performance A LOT (>30%), even if a local
HTTP proxy because:
- there is no need to copy again and again the same files
- we avoid network latency
The patch has been tested with Debian and Ubuntu with every elements
from the tripleo-image-elements repository, the final size of the cache
directory is about 700MB per distribution subdirectory.
