Sorry about that! What browser/operating system? I suspect this is a missing font issue.

I can totally relate, that's why we built https://packagecloud.io to provide a service for securely and easily hosting debian and rpm files. We also provide chef and puppet cookbooks to make integration as easy as possible. Give it at try!

This looks neat, just in time for the weekend :)

I've been using the free plan at https://packagecloud.io for my debs (handles my rpms and gems too), and it's been working well so far.
