My first run before reprepro was this, but without configuration and deeper understanding. I aim not only for solutions, but for a deeper understanding. The tool apt-ftparchive didn't fullfill my ecpectations and needs. Maybe a lack of patience, I don't know. > And I see you asked on debian-devel and someone there suggested what > the config setting is for reprepo I think. Yes, the problem is solved. How can the apt-ftparchive tool support the average admin expectacion and why is this not default? I'm glad someone pointed me to the reprepro tool, and with Peter's help I've got the conf which fullfills my dreams. I took care about the missing line in the Debian wiki page[1]. I got the conf template from there. I improved the wiki page with our results in a conservative way, hoping to find agreement about the topic.
