Well I was using reprepro for some time but it has some huge drawback it
can't handle more then 1 version of the package.
So I just swapped to DAK (http://wiki.debian.org/DakHowTo) this is a
great tool and gives me fully operational Debian repo (enough to say
that it's used on debian.org servers :-) )
So depending what OP want to have, reprepro is great (specially with
dput) if you don't need to keep many versions of the same package.
