Effort?  It's dead simple.  In Red Hat based distros, back when I
used them, there was even an "caching-server-x.y.noarch.rpm"
package that would do _all_ the work for you.  A quick search
for a similar Debian style package doesn't turn up anything.
Perhaps someone else can post about that.

Cheers,
Tanner
