This vagrant machine is a deb cache, implemented using squid-deb-cache.
When this vagrant machine is running on your network, any client with squid-deb-cache-client installed will discover the proxy via zeroconf and send all requests for debs through it. The debs are cached on the proxy using squid.
To build and start the VM that runs the cache:
$ vagrant up
On each client you want to use the cache:
$ apt-get install -y squid-deb-cache
Each client needs to be on the same network as the VM with the cache. I do this by keeping them both on a private host-only VirtualBox network.
Note that I've removed the default limitation to only allow downloads from a set list of sites. This proxy can be used to access any web URL.
