So to continue: I got two votes for reprepro and am looking into it. As with
so many things, not that hard once one sits down and fiddles with it.
One think I could not answer was: can it do what mini-dinstalled called
archive_style = flat
so that we could cook-up an in-place substitution? The answer seems to be
"No" and pools have advantages, esp as we are at 2300+ packages and growing.
So maybe this is the time to have users switch their sources.list entries.
