Re: can't install from a local repository
> ewinger@nuffin:~/archive$ ls
> Packages.gz Sources.gz binary-i386 source
k... now this is where you are wrong
the structure should be like this :
~/archive/binary-i386/Packages.gz
~/archive/source/Sources.gz
and those two files point to wherever your packages might be
( normally you'd put them in
~/archive/pool/<first-letter-package>/<package-name>
)
and with your sources.list looking like :
deb file:///home/ewinger archive/
deb-src file:///home/ewinger archive/
you should make sure you have run the dpkg-scanpackages/dpkg-scansources
from /home/ewinger/archive
