You can find information on how to set up a repo on the Debian website.
Basically you have to set up the correct folders and then run the
following programs across it:
dpkg-scanpackages -a armel pool/${1} /dev/null | gzip -c9 >
dists/${1}/user/binary-armel/Packages.gz
dpkg-scansources pool/${1} /dev/null | gzip -c9 >
dists/${1}/user/binary-armel/Sources.gz
${1} is the distro name. That would be "2008.08" for the OpenMoko OS. :)
However you should know that OpenMoko is tailored to work with opkg. I
am not sure what will break if you use dpkg and apt-get/aptitude on it.
I would also modify the openmoko image definition to not include opkg
and instead apt. Angstrom - the distro - OpenMoko is derived from - has
support for .deb packages. Perhaps the easiest way is to look how it is
done there.
Btw: OE can also create RPMs. :)
