If not some packages making up 7.6 are probably gone from the pool as new packages were uploaded. You can try using some archived CDs as package sources or something like that. You can also repackage the files installed on your system as .debs - iirc there is a tool for repackaging an installed package. You can then make a repo of these and give it the highest priority with apt preferences HTH Michal
