Hi all! Is there a way to use apt-get on packages in a directory somewhere on a system, that are not organized like archive and that do not have Packages.gz files (how are those created anyhow?).
The reason I ask is, that I have a system that has fast internet access and apt-get works great in such a situation. I also want to use the downloaded packages, which I have apt-get leave undeleted, to update my home system, which has only a 14400 Baud connection for e-mail, by placing them on a CD. So far I had to install them manually via dpkg -i. Apt-get was useless in that situation (or I did not know how to make it usefull). Any ideas? TIA Thorsten Manegold
