Hi,

I have apt-cacher-ng installed but turned off to have the docs available
on my notebook. The cron job doesn't like that and sends mails like:

/etc/cron.daily/apt-cacher-ng:
Could not make a valid request to the server. Please visit http://127.0.0.1:3142/acng-report.html?doExpire=Start+Expiration&abortOnErrors= aOe and check special conditions.
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/apt-cacher-ng exited with return code 1

The cron job should detect this situation and revert to being a silent
no-op.

Greetings
Marc
