[packman] MirrorCache for packman?

[Marc Schiffbauer]

Hej Andrii,

thanks for your offer! This would be nice to have. But we need to delay 
this until next year, when I have more time and reliable internet 
connection again to do this.

And I am not sure if we have the ressources for that, but we will figure 
that out then

-Marc
