Apt-move works great for sources of packages that support rsync, but as far as I can tell, it won't work for
deb http://kde.tdyc.com stable kde2 The thing I'm trying to accomplish is this: Using my pathetic 33.6 modem, I apt-get install some packages. After it's installed, I want to have these packages available on my home network so that my other three systems can apt-get them from my lan. So I have a set of packages in /var/cache/apt/archive, and a few in my home directory. How do I put them in an apt-getable directory structure, complete with Packages, Packages.gz, and Release files? If there's a way to make those three files by hand, then I'd be half-way there. -- Did you know that if you play a Windows 2000 cd backwards, you will hear the voice of Satan? That's nothing! If you play it forward, it'll install Windows 2000.
