Presenting my debian repository

Following the instructions in the howto “Setting up your own APT repository with upload support” I’ve created my own debian repository for sarge (i386 only). At the moment, there isn’t much in it. Just a backport of reprepro from unstable.

To use my repository, add these lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list

# Erik Johansson's repository
deb     http://eddie.ejohansson.se/debian/ sarge main
deb-src http://eddie.ejohansson.se/debian/ sarge main

I’m using a similar versioning scheme as backports.org: reducing the debian version by one and adding “.erik.x”, where x is a number starting at 1. This way they are automatically upgraded when the version in unstable hits stable (etch).

Happy apt-getting!

  1. Hello,

    Could you ask somebody to upload your packages to backports.org.

    I would be a bonus for everybody.

    Thanks
