</div>The same here ;-)<br>
<br>
As an upgrade requires manual intervention, I propose to use named<br>
repositories per distribution:<br>
<br>
deb <a href="http://downloads.opennebula.org/repo/debian/7" target="_blank">http://downloads.opennebula.org/repo/debian/7</a> retina main<br>
<br>
Using a symlink to point to stable release if required and another one<br>
to point to numbered version.<br>
<br>
I'm not sure about it but we could use the distribution name as<br>
component, like:<br>
<br>
deb <a href="http://downloads.opennebula.org/repo/debian" target="_blank">http://downloads.opennebula.org/repo/debian</a> retina wheezy<br>
deb <a href="http://downloads.opennebula.org/repo/debian" target="_blank">http://downloads.opennebula.org/repo/debian</a> retina jessie<br>
<br>
It's quite easy to configure reprepro[1] and it's incoming to dispatch<br>
packages.<br>
<br>
Regards.<br>
