[Bug 4844] Re: apt-proxy-import says "no suitable backend found"

[Peter Enzerink]

I have a similar problem in 1.9.33ubuntu1. I have no idea why I get the errors about not being able to find the packages files list as I can happily install new and packages.

$ sudo  apt-proxy-import -v /var/cache/apt/archives
WARNING: apt-proxy has not been tested under this version of twisted (2.2.0).
