You already have a repository available for this task:


deb http://packages.gnuinos.org/merged <codename> main
deb-src http://packages.gnuinos.org/merged <codename> main

deb http://packages.gnuinos.org/merged <codename>-updates main
deb-src http://packages.gnuinos.org/merged <codename>-updates main

deb http://packages.gnuinos.org/merged <codename>-security main
deb-src http://packages.gnuinos.org/merged <codename>-security main


being <codename> jessie, ascii or beowulf. Just add the gpg key of gnuinos:

|$ curl -L https://packages.gnuinos.org/gnuinos_pk.asc | sudo apt-key add -|

|and update the repository.|

On the other hand, the official kernel of debian has been removed from
the repository of gnuinos and replaced by linux-libre.
If you want to build your own repository, you will need to patch both
reprepro and amprolla in order to use them together (in the concrete
case of gnuinos, because you can find also your own way).
