Follow the directions (basically) for the 'trivial repository' on a Debiain system here:

http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/re...pository-howto

Or, someone can make the complete repository, and create the tarball, and everyone else can just put it where it needs to go on their system. Like I said in a previous post, we, the user community, can easily create a repository ourselves. We just need access to the raw files, and someone has to create the initial repo. Then everyone just rsyncs/copies everything across to their systems. I can setup the roundrobin DNS if we pick a domain name. I have 3 separate 6Mb llines that I can throw at the problem (one is into Level3, the other are into the Verizon cloud for backup links).
