I use the following: * Put the debs in ~/public_html * cd into ~/public_html and run the script below * apt-get update * apt-get install <whatever> The deb line I use is of the form: deb http://localhost/~paul / And the script is three lines long: #! /bin/sh dpkg-scanpackages . /dev/null | gzip -c9 > Packages.gz dpkg-scansources . | gzip -c9 > Sources.gz The two programs refered to above are in the dpkg-dev package. In my ~/public_html directory, I would thus have: foo.deb bar.deb Packages.gz and an empty Sources.gz (for example). The manpages for the two dpkg- programs have some more information.
