As far as I know there is no way to define a custom repo inside of
another .deb package. I suppose you could have it add the custom repo
to the system during the install and have it then run apt-get install
again. But that seems a bit convoluted to just avoid uploading to
launchpad.
Ok, I was under the impression that a ppa added a new repository, so I was
thinking that you could have the ppa process add the adiscon repository instead
of a launchpad repository. This is about what the instructions tell you to do
now, but the ppa mechanism is a few less steps (and has marketing type
advantages)

One thing I am not clear on about this new repository is it for the
-devel branch or -stable.
On the page it says it is for -stable.
"Please note that the Ubuntu Repository is open for testing at the
moment, and contains only the latest Version for v7-stable."
But the packages are for v7-devel 7.3.4. vs 7.2.3 which is the latest
stable release.

Are you looking at what it would take to add as an ubuntu ppa? They
would just need to submit to create a ppa and then add them to the ppa
by submitting each of the .changes file via dput.
I recently did this for a rsyslog 7.2.3 package as a ppa.

I have packages complete for precise. I am still working on back
porting to older ubuntu releases.
Almost, I was hopeing that there is a way to create a ppa that points at the
repository that Andre setup, so that they don't have to do the extra step of
uploading each new version to launchpad.

Hi all,
a few month ago we made our own RPM repository available for testing,
and
it has been a great help for users and admins to distribute the latest
RSyslog Versions on their systems.
So to expand the availability of RSyslog V7 to our Ubuntu users, we are
happy to announce our first Ubuntu repository for RSyslog, currently
containing the latest v7-devel and needed packages. These packages
should
work well on Ubuntu 12 systems, our own tests were successful. It's my
first
shot at building deb's for Ubuntu, so I'd appreciate if someone could
try
them out and let me know any problems or other general feedback.
All necessary details can be found here:

Andre, it looks like you are very close to having this setup in a way
that
can be used as a PPA (It may even be there, just with changes in the
instructions).
It's probably worth going to the slight extra effort to be able to define
this as a PPA. I don't know if I'll have any chance to look at exactly
what
is needed for this today, but I'll try to get to it.
If anyone knows what needs to be done, please speak up and save me the
research time :-)
