It's super simple to setup and use. Create a basic <a href="http://dput.cf" target="_blank">dput.cf</a> and you are good to go.<span class=""><br>

I use reprepro too. Super simple to setup and use, would recommend.<span class=""><br>

This is something I would like to avoid as I might not always have full shell access to the repository from where the package is built.<br>
<br>
Furthermore, I don't have access to all the packages in the repository in the same folder to manually generate Packages.gz. (reprepro can do it for me)<br>
<br>
Ideally, I would like to upload a signed .changes control file to ensure the package wasn't tampered with or got corrupted during the transfer. (since .changes contains checksums)<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
