How did you create the repository? If you just copied the .deb files
into a directory, that's not enough. In the directory you dropped the
packages, you need to do:
dpkg-scanpackages . /dev/null >Packages || true ;
dpkg-scansources . /dev/null >Sources || true ;
gzip -c Packages >Packages.gz ;
gzip -c Sources >Sources.gz
and place Packages.gz and Sources.gz in the same directory for it to be
a valid install repository.
