I maintain our internal apt repo of Ceph, its build script generations some ddeb files, which is the debug symbol file. But reprepro cannot add those ddeb files, with errors like:

Unknown file type: 'a2e592c703334bc9f55a62f6fac267d8 135503940 debug optional ceph-base-dbgsym_14.2.7-75-g14b67dbc11-1_amd64.ddeb', assuming source format...

And below is my repo conf/distributions file:

Codename: bionic
Suite: stable
Components: main
Architectures: amd64 source

and reprepro version is 5.1.1

can.

There's an old bug about this here.

I am currently using a forked version of reprepro from here. This forked version was actually created to enable multiple versions but also has support for ddeb files. It's not perfect and has some annoyances, primary being that the ddeb files are put into a special component. I opened a bug report about it here that talks about how to configure your sources.list to get them to actually be available to install after adding them to the repo using the custom reprepro.
