63.11 Adding the Package to Your Archive
Once the package is correctly built load it onto your Debian archive to provide it for others to access:
$ cp wajig_2.0.20* /var/www/debian/
$ cd /var/www/debian/
$ apt-ftparchive packages . > Packages
$ apt-ftparchive sources . > Sources
$ gzip -c Packages > Packages.gz
$ gzip -c Sources > Sources.gz
$ chmod go+r *
If this is not the machine hosting your web server, copy the files across:
$ scp -p * user@togaware.com@togaware.com:/var/www/html/debian/
You will need to add the appropriate line to your
/etc/apt/sources.list
file:
deb http://www.togaware.com/debian ./
deb-src http://www.togaware.com/debian ./
If you are a Debian developer you would upload the package directly to the Debian archives using the dupload tool instead of onto your own archive.
