I do this (assumed apt-ftparchive is installed and the debs and source packages are in your cwd, and local gpg has access to your signing key): rm -f Contents.bz2 Contents.gz Packages.bz2 Packages.gz Release Release.gpg Sources.bz2 Sources.gz apt-ftparchive contents . > Contents bzip2 -k Contents gzip -9 Contents apt-ftparchive packages . > Packages bzip2 -k Packages gzip -9c Packages > Packages.gz apt-ftparchive sources . > Sources bzip2 -k Sources gzip -9c Sources > Sources.gz apt-ftparchive release . > Release rm Packages Sources gpg --armor --default-key ="Jeremy Stanley <[email protected]>" --detach-sign --output Release.gpg Release Stick the results on any old webserver and use this path in the sources.list: deb http://fungi.yuggoth.org/path/to/debs ./ Hope that helps! -- { IRL(Jeremy_Stanley); PGP(9E8DFF2E4F5995F8FEADDC5829ABF7441FB84657); SMTP([email protected]); IRC([email protected]#ccl); ICQ(114362511); AIM(dreadazathoth); YAHOO(crawlingchaoslabs); FINGER([email protected]); MUD([email protected]:6669); WWW(http://fungi.yuggoth.org/); } -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
