Package: apt-doc
Version: 0.5.28.6

The text of

/usr/share/doc/apt-doc/offline.html/ch2.html

has a paragraph which reads:

On the remote Debian machine the first thing to do is mount the disc and
copy <em>/var/lib/dpkg/status</em> to it.  You will also need to create
the directories outlined in the Overview, <em>archives/partial/</em> and
<em>lists/partial/</em> Then take the disc to the remote machine and
configure the sources.list.  On the remote machine execute the following:

        Should this paragraph begin with:

On the local Debian machine the first thing to do is...

        ?

        This seems kind of important, since we do not want the wrong
/var/lib/dpkg/status file.

        This bug also exists for version 0.6.36 of the package in
experimental.
