We plan to use the Debian/Ubuntu Advanced Packaging Tool (APT) system to centrally manage the installed software and configuration of servers and workstations in the field. The first step is to create a base package called organicdesign which will be the initial seed of content which stays up to date on all the systems in the field.

We've started maintaining our own package repository at packages.organicdesign.co.nz. For a list of the packages we're currently maintaining, see Category:Debian packages. To include our test package in your automatic updates, add the following entry to your /etc/apt/sources.list file:

echo "deb http://packages.organicdesign.co.nz main/" >> /etc/apt/sources.list

Then update your apt database with

apt-get update

Then install the package with for example

apt-get install organicdesign-workstation

Here's a list of the Debian packages we're maintaining at Organic Design. Using packages allows us to keep our servers and workstations up to data with our recommended installations and configurations. For more information see packages and creating a Debian package.
