I have been using apt-move in Woody and Sarge,
so I know how to edit /etc/apt/sources.list.
The only problem is encryption.
I ran (as root) "gpg --gen-key".
Now the only thing to be done is to fill in the entry
"SIGNINKEY="
in /etc/apt-move.conf (the instruction given is
"set this to key name to be used for signing
release files").
I have set "PKGCOMP=none".

Please help.
