Apt Repository

I maintain an APT repository for the most recent Ubuntu standard and LTS releases. Sources are provided for packages I have backported or modified myself, but not for binary packages I have imported.

To use this repository, either edit /etc/apt/sources.list or create the new file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/tolaris.list, and add to it the appropriate lines for your distribution.
