Hello.

I am trying to update some iso images ( I have downloaded ISOs last week, but it seems that there were an update since, my images are in 7.4 and last debian stable is 7.5 ) through jigdo, and wanted to play a little with its scriptable possibilities, since it seems that there is a --noask option to avoid asking questions to user.

But when I am doing this:
$i=2;jigdo-lite "http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/7.5.0/amd64/jigdo-dvd/debian-7.5.0-amd64-DVD-$i.jigdo"; --scan "debian-7.4.0-amd64-$i.iso" --noask

jigdo still asks me questions, so I can not send it through a for loop and a '&'.


Also, since jigdo is able to find files from a distant source, I was wondering if it is or not possible to retrieve those files from a local directory? For example, imagine you have the whole collection of debian's DVDs images ( so, 10 DVDs ) from last stable version ( 7.4.0 ) that you were often upgrading. The packages are definitely in your /var/cache/apt/archive, so it would be interesting to not download them again ( which is, AFAIK the only behavior of jigdo-lite currently ). So, am I missing some option, or is this feature simply not implemented? If not implemented, is there is a reason, or simply nobody had the idea/time to do it?
