Hi all, We all know that there are various distro's that build around Debian. I had an idea in mind whereby the task of making mirrors for personal distributions can be automated. This can be stated as: if a person wants to keep a customised set of packages for usage with the distribution, the tool should be able to develop dependencies, fetch packages, generate appropriate documentation and then create the corresponding directory structure in the target mirror! The task can be extended to include packages which are currently not under one of the standard mirrors!
I think the tool can have immense utility in helping people automate the task of mantaining the repositories. Suggestions, positive and negative are invited. I have not included the impl details as I would first like to evaluate the idea at a feasibility and utility level. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
