Take a look at these similar projects: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/APTonCD
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ThirdPartyApt Furthermore the "transportable" repositories do not seem to address your basic problem: the not availability of a package for a specific piece of software. And always keep in mind that installing third party software or locally compiled software has not gone through the Ubuntu quality assurance process.
