Howto set up a local apt - repository ?
Hello all.
I asked a friend to ftp and burn down openoffice for woody from
deb ftp://ftp.uninett.no/pub/linux/packages/openoffice-debian woody main
contrib
- the only 'url' i knew. I wasn't sure what exactly is needed, though.
Now i've got a cd here with the following:
Two Packages-files located at
cdrom/woody/main/binary-i386/contrib/Packages.gz
and
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /main/Packages.gz
originating from this source-tree:
ftp://ftp.uninett.no/pub/linux/packages/openoffice-debian/dists/woody/contrib/binary-i386
and
ftp://~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~main/binary-i386
The 'contrib Packages.gz' contains the description for the package
<openoffice.org 1.0.1-6> with
'filename: pool/openoffice.org/openoffice.org_1.0.1-6_all.deb'
where the 'main' one is for <debhelper> with the filename
'pool/main/debhelper/debhelper_4.0.2.openoffice_all.deb'
( sounds like the right package for now....;-)
There's no further 'Packages' or 'Packages.gz' on cd.
Then there are the binaries. This deb-files are in cdrom/openoffice-org.
Looking up their original source i found
ftp://ftp.uninett.no/pub/linux/packages/openoffice-debian/pool/contrib/openoffice.org/
I got a little confused about it.
It's quite a bunch of stuff.
Are there all 'control files' apt needs to install ?
And how to proceed ? The cd-tree isn't in the right form, probably.
But what then would it be ?
Or can i tune apt to find things on CD anyway ?
Perhaps i should create a local repository. But i didn't find a detailed
description how to do that yet.
So what exactly is the 'physically' file path apt will accept ?
Whrere to place the binaries, whrere the Packages.gz
(if that's really enough...). How to set up sources.lst then.
And what about the implied 'filename' paths ? I guess i have to change them.
I hope this is quite a debian question, this time....
any help greatly appreciated !
