--- Begin Message ---Package: apt-zip Version: 0.15 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Hi, I emailed to suggest this as a wishlist item, and had no response as yet, so I've had a go myself. If the networked machine is a Debian computer it may already have many of the packages needed for the un-networked machine in it's apt cache. This patch checks to see, and if found copies them to the apt-zip medium. If they're not there it downloads them as before. I'm not a scripting expert, so please change if necessary, but it works for me: Change the getfile() section to: getfile(){ ( [ -r ../$2 ] && check ../$2 $4 $? && echo "$2 already downloaded.") || (( [ -r /var/cache/apt/archives/$2 ] && check /var/cache/apt/archives/$2 $4 $? && echo "$2 already in Debian package cache$ (echo "Downloading $2 from the network..." && do_wget $1 $2 $3 $4 && mv $2 ../)) } This patch can save a lot of time downloading duplicate packages. Packages are md5sum checked as before.
