It doesn't require a + PostgreSQL database, and is very easy to set up, maintain, and use. + mini-dinstall can be run via cron, or as a daemon. + . + This package is expressly designed for personal apt repositories, and + the like. In this vein, it contains fewer sanity checks; for + example, it will happily install a lower version of a package. You + can also generally just 'rm' files from the repository, and + mini-dinstall won't care. In fact, (when run as a daemon) it will + automatically detect that the directory changed, and update the + Packages file. + |
