  17. Description: apt helper for peer-to-peer downloads of Debian packages
  18. Apt-P2P is a helper for downloading Debian packages files with APT.
  19. It will download any needed files from other Apt-P2P peers in a
  20. peer-to-peer manner, and so reduce the strain on the Debian mirrors.
  21. .
  22. The Apt-P2P daemon runs automatically on startup and listens for
  23. requests from APT for files, as well as maintaining membership in a
  24. Distributed Hash Table (DHT). For any files which have a hash
  25. available (most files), peers that have the file are looked for in the
  26. DHT. The file can then be downloaded from them, using the uploading
  27. bandwidth of other peers while reducing the demand on the Debian mirror
  28. network. However, if a package can not be found on any peers, Apt-P2P
  29. will fall back to downloading from a mirror to ensure all packages are
  30. downloaded. Once downloaded, the file is hash checked and added to the
  31. DHT so that other peers can download it without the mirror.
  32. .
  33. The configuration is very simple, and only involves prepending
  34. 'localhost' and the port to your current sources.list lines (similar
  35. to other apt-proxy-like software).
