To use a caching proxy to help with yum/dnf/packagekit, you need to
ensure that those updaters always use the same repo mirror. So you
need to configure your updater, first.
I found some methods that use url rewriting but it's rather ugly...
One[1] suggested this:
\/fedora\/linux\/releases\/([0-9]+)\/Everything/x86_64\/(.*)$ http://repo.mirrors.squid.internal/fedora/releases/$1/$2
\/fedora\/linux\/updates\/([0-9]+)\/x86_64\/(.*)$ http://repo.mirrors.squid.internal/fedora/updates/$1/$2
\/fedora\/linux\/updates\/([0-9]+)\/x86_64\/(.*)$ http://repo.mirrors.squid.internal/fedora/updates/$1/$2
There's got to be a proper and generic way of doing this. Keeping up with a list of mirrors isn't sustainable.
I'd be willing to create a new project to try and come up with a package that would automagically get this working but I'd need a lot of help...
Thanks,
Richard
