I am interested in finding out about apt and deity. I would appreciate if someone would inform me of a website or somewhere where I can get introductory information.
Specifically, i was wondering ring whether it would be possible for me to install packages using http, thru a http proxy. I am inside a firewall, and cannot ftp or NFS outside. Just so you know what kind of proxy I'm talking about, I just put in it's hostname and port 80 in netscape, and it works away fine. Is it possible to use apt the same way? Many thanks, Vincent.
