I've been doing a lot of cross development & find myself downloading lots of packages using the Debian web interface. Good as Debian's web interface is, this is tedious.
Investigating apt-get, I found: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=197424 but I can't figure out how to stipulate an architecture to aptitude (-a powerpc, or something) or download depended packages.
I need a tool to quickly download (& optionally extract, in one step) packages for a stipulated architecture, & there dependancies. Anyone know of a solution?
I thought that Debian, with a repository of cross architecture binaries, & the oldest package tools, would be great for cross development - but thus far, it's been surprisingly difficult!
Thanks!
Jack
