Hi all,

I've been working on the Kheb Debian archive for a few days. I must
make apologizes for the breakage.

My goal was to separate the main repository (that would hold all custom
packages), from the support repository (that provides Debian packages
missing from Ubuntu). And in the process, I intended to automate all
that stuff.

If someone could help to test the new repository structure, I'd be
glad. It's now organized like this:

- main Debian repository with only custom packages (i.e. FreeWRL at the
moment)

	deb http://kheb.homelinux.org/debian myosotis-unstable main

- wrapper Ubuntu repository (targeted for 9.04 / jaunty but would work
for 8.04/8.10) with Debian packages not present in Ubuntu and required
by packages in the main repo

	deb http://kheb.homelinux.org/debian myosotis-jaunty main

Those repo will be extended in a few days with a testing and a stable
branch. If I put precompiled Nvidia drivers, I'll create a non-free
component.

For your information, I use two repo management tools : reprepro and
germinate. Plus some shell scripts.

Any help appreciated.

Michel
