Now one thing I'm wondering about is whether anybody has already developed a small script that moves the files from the dpkg-ftp inbound directory to a local debian installation directory. Right now I'm doing that manually whenever my /var fs fills up, but mv'ing all those files while checking to delete the old versions and later on recreating Packages files is surely a hassle.
