Install deb from pushed application directory

[zach-morris]

What version of Cloud Foundry and CF CLI are you using? (i.e. What is the output of running cf curl /v2/info && cf version?
cf.exe version 6.53.0+8e2b70a4a.2020-10-01

What version of the buildpack you are using?
Apt Buildpack version 0.2.2

If you were attempting to accomplish a task, what was it you were attempting to do?
Attempting to include deb files that are not in a repository, I'd like to install the deb files from a directory located in the app upload ($HOME) path.

My apt.yml looks like this:

packages:
- $HOME/deb_files/x.deb
- $HOME/deb_files/y.deb
- $HOME/deb_files/z.deb

The application that I push contains a directory deb_files containing the deb packages.

What did you expect to happen?
The apt buildpack would recognize / accept a path instead of a URL or repo package name

What was the actual behavior?

Perhaps this is in fact already possible, and I just don't understand the correct protocol / method of defining the needed packages in the apt.yml, if thats the case, maybe a simple documentation update would help.

Please confirm where necessary:

• I have included a log output
• My log includes an error message
• I have included steps for reproduction
