Well, I didn't try it that way, thanks for the hint. What I was trying to do is to have a complete ubuntu mirror (created with debmirror) and to use that for upgrading machines, either with the mirror on a USB hard disk or with the mirror burned onto three double layer DVDs using debpartial, debcopy, and apt-cdrom. Both methods result in having deb entries in the sources file that are not accepted by update-manager.
But I'll give that method with the alternate CD a try... -- update-manager does not accept debian proxies https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/216907 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
