Creating local package mirror

Motivation
If you want to test a package during debootstrap, you can create a local mirror and have deboostrap refer to that.
There are probably simpler ways of doing this. Right now I'm documenting the steps I took which made this work. I suspect several steps can be dropped.
Steps
First, create the packages as you see fit.
Create the mirror directories:
mkdir -p /mirrors/debian/pool/main mkdir -p /mirrors/debian/dists/precise/main/binary-amd64
Download the files debootstrap will need, and copy them into the mirror:
debootstrap --download-only precise precise-cache cp precise-cache/var/cache/apt/archive/* /mirrors/debian/pool/main
Copy the customized packages into pool/main:
cp *.deb /mirrors/debian/pool/main/
Now create Packages list:
cd /mirrors/debian apt-ftparchive packages pool/main | gzip -9c > dists/precise/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz
We need a Releases file:
cd /mirrors/debian cat > release.conf << EOF APT::FTPArchive::Release { Origin "APT-Move"; Label "APT-Move"; Suite "precise"; Codename "precise"; Architectures "amd64"; Components "main"; Description "Local Updates"; }; EOF apt-ftparchive -c release.conf release dists/precise/ > dists/precise/Release #gpg -bao dists/precise/Release.gpg dists/precise/Release - not needed?
Now, you can run debootstrap referring to this mirror:
debootstrap --no-check-gpg precise precise-rootfs file:///mirrors/debian
