Creating a Debian repository

I wanted to automate setting up my custom application on multiple Raspberry PI's. It was time to learn how to set up a Debian repository. On my personal web server, the steps to create the repository: cd /var/www mkdir debian cp /path/to/my-package_0.0-1_armhf.deb debian/ dpkg-scanpackages debian /dev/null | gzip -9c >debian/Packages.gz On each Raspberry: sudo sh -c "echo 'deb http://myserver.host.name debian/' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/myserver.list" aptitude update aptitude install my-package Helpful, almost complete instructions I found at  linuxconfig.org/  and  help.ubuntu.com/
