The repository management is a little bit rough at the moment. So here
is the structure for a possible (add-)repository-druid:

1. choose between:
 - remove repository (2.)
 - add repository (3.)
 - (de)activate repositories (4.)
this could also be done with menu items

2. REMOVE REPOSITORY
2.1. choose repository to remove from list of all repository

3. ADD REPOSITORY
3.1. choose type of repository:
- cdrom (3.2.)
- local hard disk (3.3.)
- debian mirror (3.4.)
- custom (3.5)

3.2. CDROM
3.2.1 insert cdrom
3.2.2 confirm found repository

3.3. LOCAL
3.3.1. entry box to the path with browse dialog and an option to
(re)create the repository (run apt-ftparchive)

3.4. DEBIAN MIRROR
3.4.1. choose mirror: two combo boxes with country - mirrors
                      option to include contrib and non-free

3.5. CUSTOM
3.5.1. just enter the plain deb line

5. REPORT or ERROR dialog - option to return to 1

I appended a glade mockup that includes adding repositories only.
