You did not. Dpkg searches for local files only. If you had all the dependencies in that directory, you could just (sometimes it's not that easy though): # dpkg -i *.deb But, since you need to download the dependencies from the repository, you install your package with `dpkg -i', and then fix the missing dependencies with apt. And here's where `apt-get -f install' enters the scene! Nothing wrong :) Congratulations for your first package! ;) David -- . ''`.
