already discussed..... i think adhin wasnt a member at that time.....
1. copy the repository files (*.deb) to a local directory, say
'/home/junise/repos/packages1' ('junise' is my user name)
2. run the following commands in terminal
a. 'cd /home/junise/repos/packages1'
b. 'dpkg-scanpackages . | gzip -9c > ./Packages.gz '
3. open your sources.list file in super user mode (/etc/apt/sources.list)
4. add the line 'deb file:///home/junise/repos/packages1/ ./'
5. if you have the complete repository, comment all the line with
http://address using an '#' in front of the line
6. run the command 'sudo apt-get update' in the terminal
