So to me it looks like the syntax of your sources.list entry is incorrect
The standard syntax is as follows: ( http://linux.die.net/man/5/sources.list)
type baseuri distribution [component component2 ... compnentN]
With the below outlined setup should work:
1) Your directory structure is:
.
└── cloudstack
└── repo
├── amd64
│ └── Packages.gz
└── pool
├── some-other-package.deb
└── some-package.deb
2) You generated Packages.gz from running the following command with your
working directory being /var/www/cloudstack/repo
dpkg-scanpackages amd64 | gzip -9c > amd64/Packages.gz
3) There's a web server running in /var/www, if you wish to bring up one
for testing purposes:
{ cd /var/www; python -m SimpleHTTPServer 80; }
4) Your cloudstack.list located in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ now looks like
the following:
deb http://localhost/cloudstack/repo amd64/
With the outlined above setup you should be able to
- Run `sudo apt-get update` with a successful result.
- Run `sudo apt-cache search cloudstack` and get back a list of all
packages with cloudstack in their name.
- Run `sudo apt-cache show cloudstack-cli` get a print out of the
Packages.gz entry for cloudstack-cli.
- Run `sudo apt-get download cloudstack-cli` get a copy of the .deb in
the repo for cloudstack-cli.
Hope this helps!
