Hi Alexander,

An idea for you.  A combination of...

- apt-proxy on the gateway ( https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AptProxyHowTo )
- appropriately configured sources.list files
- appropriately configured update-manager (System -> Administration ->
Update Manager)

... should achieve this.

Hope this helps.

Cheers, Dave.
