Hi,
I think so :
man up2date :
-k, --packagedir
Specify a colon seperated path of directories to look for
packages before attempting to download them.
(in case you use he command line option, not the GUI)
By the way, I used to put some updates under /var/spool/up2date some
times ago, and it was working quite good. But your need root access for
it.
Or you can configure up2date and tell him that your repository is under
$HOME/updates (for example) . This works also and you need the root
access only to configure it, not after.
Right click on the up2date icon will show you the Configuration menu.
Hope this helps
