Many thanks to GNUtransfer for lending us a VPS and other resources to write this article.
We have created a debian wheezy amd64 repository to allow the installation of the following packages:
- bitcoind-init
- litecoind-init
- p2pool-init
- xen-4.4
In this article we will see how to add the repository to a Debian Wheezy amd64 installation
Let’s add the repository to our sources.list file running this command as root:
root@vps590197:/# wget -q http://repository.geeklab.com.ar/geeklab-repository/geeklab-repository-wheezy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/geeklab-repository-wheezy.list root@vps590197:/#
Then add the repository public key:
root@vps590197:/# wget -q http://repository.geeklab.com.ar/geeklab-repository/geeklab-repository.asc -O - | apt-key add -- OK root@vps590197:/#
Now we run an update

With this we have available all the new packages from geeklab repository.
NOTE: You must also add the debian wheezy backports repository
