Hi Christoph,

thanks for the suggestions. I was not aware of the "pull" command, I
completely missed it!
Right now I setup reprepro to mirror the entire pgsql repo and added our
new repo line to apt.sources.d on each machine. It's not as granular as
I hoped since it pulls everything but at least the DBAs are happy.
According to what you wrote it should not cause conflicts or issues due
to libraries or packages simply not being pulled from the repo unless
explicitly installed.

I'll surely need the pull feature in the near future, so it's still a
good thing to investigate it.

Thanks for your help Christoph, much appreciated!

Nicola
