Setup an ArchLinux package caching proxy on Raspberry Pi 4
So I built my own tool pacman-backup that allows exporting the cache to a usb drive, and to emulate a simple pacman server that you can run inside the local network.

Finally set up a proper shared local pacman cache, pacoloco in an nspawn container
Well there was https://github.com/RubenKelevra/pacman.store running via ipfs, but currently it is broken due to a bug in ipfs.
-
Can package upgrades be made like torrents? Like peer to peer?
There is an IPFS Archlinux package mirror (https://github.com/RubenKelevra/pacman.store)

I don't want to be toxic, but...
If you run arch linux you could do updates through ipfs (link), and help the network that way. Linux mint has a working ipfs mirror too i think. Dont know of any others.
-
The feasibility of using IPFS to replace linux software sources (http and ftp)!
Definitely doable but most repos are huge, so not many people who even can start one. I only know of the arch linux mirror: https://github.com/RubenKelevra/pacman.store#pacmanstore
