Question regarding multi distribution organisation

[flotho]

Hi everyone,

Thanks for this amazing repo.

I would like to document some process regarding mutli distro process.

I'm wondering if I understood everything correctly.
Here are my sources :

• https://www.aptly.info/doc/aptly/repo/create/ seems to indicate tha a repo is concerned by a single distribution
• Endpoint Publishing could be done for multiple distribution
• Since 1.6.0 publishing in multi dist manner is possible thanks to https://github.com/aptly-dev/aptly/pull/1292/changes
• Useful comment is clarifying things distribution parameter seems to be ignored in publish #895 (comment)

So the workflow could be something like this :

• aptly repo create internal_repo_name_for_trixie -distribution=trixie
• aptly repo create internal_repo_name_for_bullseye -distribution=bullseye
• aptly repo add internal_repo_name_for_trixie wonderfool.db
• aptly repo add internal_repo_name_for_bullseye wonderfool.db

Then publishing like this :

• aptly publish repo -distribution=trixie -component=main internal_repo_name_for_trixie amazing_endpoint
• aptly publish repo -distribution=bullseye -component=main internal_repo_name_for_bullseye amazing_endpoint

Any feedback is welcomed
