Whiteboard
Here is a demo of what will be happening:
cd ~/Packages && dpkg-scanpackages . /dev/null > Packages && gzip Packages
This creates the necessary files for apt to know what is in your local repositories.
Once completed insert the following into your sources.list file:
deb file:<Packages Directory> <repo> <section>
