files in /var/cache/apt/archives



Hi,

I donwloaded several .deb files, and then transferred to my machine. I'd
like the newly stored files get recognized by apt-get; so that when I do
apt-get dist-upgrade, I don't have to download some of the files that
are already in the directory.

BTW, if I just installed the files using dpkg (I want to upgrade to
Woody), would that make my system to be Woody? (I'm afraid that there some
magical things behind apt-get dist-upgrade.)

TIA,
Oki
