I presume you mean that these are potato packages you have downloaded since an
initial install of slink.
What would the best & easiest way of making such a partial mirror or all
packages in potato that are different from slink?  With such a mirror, I could
install what I want using my official slink CD set, then update to my current
state with the partial mirror.  This would be really, really handy in case my
system buggers up (or I bugger it up).
When apt-get downloads packages, it puts them in /var/archive/apt/cache
