I recently created a offline installer.. debbundle.. I got a bug in it.. Let me explain the process..
See code -> http://code.google.com/p/debbundle/source/browse/trunk/OneClickInstall_Deb_Creator?spec=svn10&r=10 To install vim-gtk, I am first downloading all deb package (and not installing it.) mkdir -p vim-gtk mkdir -p vim-gtk/partial sudo apt-get -y -o dir::cache::archives=./vim-gtk install --download-only vim-gtk sudo rm vim-gtk/lock Now I am copying this folder and another system which do not have Internet.. so on system 2, I am running following commands.. cd /media/usbdrive/vim-gtk sudo apt-get -y -o dir::cache::archives=/media/usbdrive/vim-gtk install vim-gtk This is not installing vim-gtk on second system which is just freshly installed. Initially when I created this project few days back, I was using same machine as build-server and install-test server. SO i was not getting this error// Source of Error : basically, a freshly installed system do not have -- sudo apt-get update If I run sudo apt-get update command then I command will work.. So basically, on a freshly installed system one has to apply "sudo apt-get install update" in order to install some package. How I can bypass this because my second machine do not have Internet. Let me know if anybody want any more clarity. -- ┌─────────────────────────┐ │ Narendra Sisodiya │ http://narendrasisodiya.com └─────────────────────────┘
