Related to this, I have a question also.
One friend has a new hard drive and wants to copy his 3 unofficial potato
CDs into it, and make them aptable. So I copied the CDs on a
debian/dist/{m,c,n-f,n-u} tree and I guess I only need to run
dpkg-scanpackages on each directory to generate the Packages files. The
problem is I don't know which is the overrides file in the CDs. Is it
necessary?
An example would be the best help.
