You don't even need a webserver.  The pkg repo is a URL, which can begin
with file:///.  Our build machine uses file:// for its own packages, but
also has a webserver so that other machines can use the same packages.
(I found out the hard way that upgrading the apache that is serving pkg
repo can be a chicken and egg thing, so that's why I'm using the file://
url on that machine... :)
