Easy way to host a debian update repository

Viewed 5728

I have a project where I create a single .deb file, which should be installed by a linux client. For this I would like to use apt-get install mypackage.

Being quite new to this area, I am now looking for the most simple way of hosting my own debian update repository, which will only have to contain mypackage.deb.

I quickly looked at mini-dinstall which looked promising, but they seem to work with .changes, rather than .deb packages. So I am not sure if this is what I need.

So summarized the workflow should look something like this:

  1. I create the debian package mypackage.deb
  2. I tell some daemon to update the update repository: fancy-update-daemon add mypackage.deb
  3. The client is able to install or update using standard apt commands: apt-get install mypackage

Thanks for your help
