• Bug#819585: local-apt-repository: add a "suite" name to local-apt-repos

    From Jakob Haufe@21:1/5 to All on Sun Apr 20 16:00:01 2025
    Hi,

    I played around with options for Release file generation. While it's possible to put Packages/Sources files in a subdirectory and specify that as Suite and Codename when building the Release file, it still doesn't enable the use of e.g.

    apt install foo/local

    So unless I'm missing something, fixing this would require a suite and a component which in turn would require the full dists/foo/bar/binary-* tree.

    Generating this is no longer feasible with plain apt-ftparchive and would require reprepro or similar tools.

    As already mentioned, an entry like

    Package: *
    Pin: release o=local-apt-repository
    Pin-Priority: 123

    can be used to adjust the priority of packages served by local-apt-repository.

    I plan to close this bug wontfix and add a note to the README.

    Cheers,
    sur5r
