I use deb-s3[1] which is sort of like this, but handles uploading the package and updating the Packages index in a single step. deb-s3 can also sign your Release file so apt won't complain about unsigned packages. The post mentioned deb-s3 and dismissed it as more complicated to setup than this solution. While the lambda solution is neat, I'm not sure I would describe it as simple. For now I think I'll stick with deb-s3. [1]: https://github.com/krobertson/deb-s3
