Here's a script I use to do it: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat public_html/debian/create-apt-source #! /bin/sh dpkg-scanpackages . /dev/null | gzip -c9 > Packages.gz dpkg-scansources . | gzip -c9 > Sources.gz [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ Three lines is all it takes. The commands can be found in the dpkg-dev package. You can you apt source lines such as deb http://kippax/~paul/debian ./ deb-src http://kippax/~paul/debian ./ (where your servername, path etc will be different) > wget http://www.cooper.edu/~nahmia/debian/fceu-doc_0.81-2_all.deb > wget http://www.cooper.edu/~nahmia/debian/fceu-sdl_0.81-2_i386.deb > wget http://www.cooper.edu/~nahmia/debian/fceu-svga_0.81-2_i386.deb Hmm, so if you ran that script in your debian directory and uploaded the Packages.gz and Sources.gz files, you could use: deb http://www.cooper.edu/~nahmia/debian ./ deb-src http://www.cooper.edu/~nahmia/debian ./ Oh, and you might like to read the manpages at some point to find out what my script does. :) Regards, Paul Cupis - -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.0 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE99lO2IzuKV+SHX/kRAh8qAJ0R2QIcUtACh2tiIyGues/wXaGV7wCfTwbt JFAhaeM76SJRQCY3oos7XN0= =v8/U -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
