I know this is a topic that has been up several times, but I haven't
found an answer for my question.
I have followed the offline document that comes with apt-get, but I
still get into problems.
I do a on the computer connected to the net:
export APT_CONFIG="/opt/disc/apt.conf"
apt-get update

Thank you, this is exactly what I was looking for.
Except the line
> tar -u $foo -f packages.tar
has to be changed into
tar uf packages.tar
The script I was referring to is the one created by apt-get -qq
-print-uris etc.
I would have to add the above line to every downloaded package. I think

Well, I know how to use tar in general. Zipping the .debs is not
necessary because they are already zipped. What I meant is: The .tar
file takes the same amount of space as the .debs themselves. So after
having tarred them , I need twice the space as before. So I want to
delete each .deb after hav
You can compress all .deb files into one zipped tar file
with only one command. See the manual page of tar. You
don't need to write code with a "for"-loop. I think it's
tar czf packages.tar.gz debdir
with debdir the directory containing all your .deb files,
and packages.tar.gz the target zipped ta
Hi list
Now that I can transfer my downloaded .debs in a .tar file, I wonder if
I could create this .tar file saving disk space, e.g. in the following
way
create a tar file (touch packages.tar?)
for *.deb in this directory
1.) add it to the tar file
2.) rm this .deb
end
Is this possible

I use Windows Commander on my WinME/Woody Notebook when being forced to
use the builtin winmodem. WC supports downloading files from a list - but

Hello List
I use apt-get as described in the offline.html guide meaning: I build a
wget script from the output of apt-get -qq --print-uris and so on. The
problem is, there are two other systems involved in this process: one
sun solaris machine, which I use to run wget on it, and a WinNT4 machine
