Base Apt sources


Anybody know of any base apt sources for CentOS? I have found a couple external resources (more would always be great) but usually they depend on a package that comes from a base or updates source. I use yum with an extensive list of repos, I would like to get apt up to snuff if possible.

Thank you for any advice.

Have you checked on the CentOS website and forums. DAG Weeirs has a ood repository for rhel/centos with extra packages.

Yes, I had these setup. It had extra's and I think even updates, but I didn't see the base source. Maybe I wasn't looking hard enough, I will check it out again. The distro does look good as a free alternative for server use. Looks a little more stable than FC3, which is what I am using now for my servers. Might have to switch 'em over.

Yeah, I have been using it for a while and its very solid. I am going to be using it on servers as well, alongside FreeBSD once I get a bit more comfortable with it.
