What I'd like to do is have a "local egg repository" that I can put these eggs in and then just point buildout at it.
So you basically add the egg-server url as a find-links option?
Actually, find-links won't replace the default location that easy_install/zc.buildout will go to when looking for eggs. It will only *enhance* the list of potentially installable packages. If you want your buildout or easy_install to talk to a private package index *only*, you have to use the 'index' option (-i for easy_install), e.g.: [buildout] index = http://your/index # can also be file:///...
If you have a find-links in ~/.buildout/default.cfg, will that override or be combined with one in a buildout.cfg?
It will be overridden if buildout.cfg specifies a find-links option as well. buildout.cfg can append to it, however: [buildout] ... find-links += some/more/stuff/here
