It is an old, and solved problem. It has come up on StackOverflow a few times before as well. Here is a (nearly) ten-year old answer of mine: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4419268/how-do-i-download-a-package-from-apt-get-without-installing-it/4419282#4419282 You want one of those solutions -- and I am sure there are newer ones, so maybe try searching on askubuntu.com as well -- as it will pull needed dependencies in for you as well. | I was wondering if I could have some .deb file available then I could | scp that .deb file from my local computer (this has internet) to that | Ubuntu server. | | But when I reached to | https://cran.cnr.berkeley.edu/bin/linux/ubuntu/disco-cran35/, I failed | to identify any deb file. | | Could you shed some light on this? a) Don't use a per-institution server.
