I was thinking about creating a central apt-get server. You don't think
it will be too messy to install RPMs for every change I want to make? For
example, lets say that I simply wanted to add a single Perl script to
/usr/bin, for example. I would have to create an RPM package for that
single Perl script. Do this even matter?
