Page I'm guessing either var or tmp, Debian Policy might help.

Doesn't apt/dpkg already check? I don't think, but could be wrong,
that apt-zeroconf proxies the sources.list so the Packages and Sources
files should contain the checksum for the .debs . All apt-zeroconf is
doing is serving files as I understand it, if the file is bad apt
should complain.
