creating your own debian package repository
Hi!
Continuing our investigation into debian packages, we'd like to be able
to create our own internal archive/repository for just our packages.
Then change our sources.list file to point at that and be able to use
the apt-get engines to update our code on any machine at any of our
facilities.
I don't see much information on what an archive is, how one
creates/administers one, how one puts packages in one and identifies it
to sources.list. I suspect that info is there, I'm just missing it.
http://www.debian.org/doc/developers-reference talks about the debian
archive, but not maintaining your own.
So, two questions:
* Is this a reasonable way to maintain our internal packages - ie a
seperate archive? Or is there a better way.
* If this is the most reasonable way, where is the information on
building/maintaining your own archive.
btw - we're only talking about a few packages. < 10.
thx much,
Eric
