  • aptly

    aptly - Debian repository management tool

  • I tried aptly as an alternative, but it's just not designed for my use case. Dealing with creating 1 mirror per component is a nightmare, and then creating a snapshot, and then publishing it, and then repeating this on a short cycle to keep up to date. I'm also aware of debmirror, which I haven't actually tried, but where's the fun in using someone else's program when you can write your own eh?
