Greetings,

I am working on creating a custom debian repository at the University
for whom I work.

I have successfully created a "simple" repository, one which has all the
relevant files in a single hierarchy.

I am now trying to split things off and use "pools", so that I can serve
various distributions (etch, lenny, sid) from the same URL.

can I suggest looking at this package reprepro and this article

Proof techniques #1: Proof by Induction.

This technique is used on equations with "_n" in them. Induction
techniques are very popular, even the military used them.

SAMPLE: Proof of induction without proof of induction.

We know it's true for _n equal to 1. Now assume that it's true
for every natural number less than _n. _N is arbitrary, so we can take _n
as large as we want. If _n is sufficiently large, the case of _n+1 is
trivially equivalent, so the only important _n are _n less than _n. We
can take _n = _n (from above), so it's true for _n+1 because it's just
about _n.
