No, with that you break the tools. There are much easier ways to get the

I don't understand. Your repository is too big for what? What do you mean,
without any tools?
You already have a list of the additional filenames in the override file you
sent. Instead of using an override file, add those files to
apt-ftparchive's list of package files using FileList and let it scan them
in the normal way.
