Exactly what I'd like to do!

Well, I've already got the packages on cd, so I'd prefer to build a complete
mirror from those. That way we've got the lot, and can rsync the updates the
usual way.

Essentially, I'd like a complete mirror without downloading all the packages
a second time.


Cake would be good too. :)
