Currently implemented with similar effects are:

gensnapshot allows creating of a snapshot of a distribution, which is
apt-get'able and keeps all the files used by it around. (but needs a
extra sources.list entry for every snapshot).

"Tracking: keep" will keep old files around, even after they are
deleted. (That's just the files in the pool, no Packages file with
them, so not apt-getable).

What is currently missing is a way to have older versions of a package
listed in a distribution's Packages file. (or multiple of them in an
other Packages file).

This is mostly by my lack of what would be actually usefull and how to
implement them. So sending in some suggestions what to keep and how they
should be accessbile might help to get them sooner.

Hochachtungsvoll,
