The repository subsystem is magic is based on Ant's Get task which has a
number of shortcomings relative to our usage scenario. I'm actually in
the process of working though refactoring of the Merlin Repository
packages (codename Transit) to enable automatic recognition and use by
Magic (together with API simplification and a more robust bootstrapping
sequence). With that in place you will be able to declare local
fallback file based repositories along with the typical remote http
based repositories.
In the meantime you have two options:
a) setup a local http powered repository
b) manually add stuff to ${metro.cache}
