12:16 < Kamion> svenl: dpkg-scanpackages, apt-ftparchive, edit the
Packages/Packages.gz/Release files by hand ... whatever,
really
12:16 < svenl> Oh.
12:16 < svenl> editing by hand maybe the easiest, only filename, version and
md5sum needs to be changed.
12:17 < Kamion> right, also size; note that you must edit Packages, then gzip
-c it to Packages.gz, then update the md5sums
and sizes of both in /dists/sarge/Release
12:17 < Kamion> you get the hang of it after a while but it's easy to get
wrong
Hope this helps.
