Description-en: Ready to use local apt repository
With this package installed, every Debian package (i.e. a *.deb file) dropped
into /srv/local-apt-repository (which you need to create first) will be
available to apt.
.
This package does not provide an apt repository to be used by other hosts. For
that, look at more serious repository solutions like reprepro and
apt-ftparchive.
