On my todo list. The core of the process is reprepro. Debderiver is a
wrapper around it. Packaging is already described [1]. We use
rebuildd+pbuilder for automated building [2]. And we keep our changes in
Bazaar [3]. Let's say there's still some potential for automation.

Hello Sam,

I didn't notice 2nd and 3rd links before. Thanks.

Could you tell me what is debderiver, how to use and when?

Is there any local repository for sources of deb packages or most of them are pulled directly from deb repository?
