Ah! apt-ftparchive seems to be exactly what I need. Why have I
overlooked it? Oh well... I also will use apt-proxy, for the pool
itself, I think, until I get fai-setup working.  Or, more correctly,
debootstrap. If that works, I'll look into make-fai-repository. Seems to
be a nice tool, although I don't understand fai that well, yet, so I'll
try that out later.

Thanks!
