Is this doable? apt-cache show apt-zip Perhaps that is what you're looking for? jkoenig@note:~$ apt-cache show apt-zip <snip> Description: Update a non-networked computer using apt and removable media These scripts simplify the process of using dselect and apt on a non-networked Debian box, using removable media like ZIP floppies. One generates a `fetch' script (supporting backends such as wget and lftp, in a modular, extensible way) to be run on a host with better connectivity, check space constraints of your removable media, and then install the package on your Debian box. . Note on current version: space-checking is not done and spanning multiple disks is not yet supported. -- -johann koenig Now Playing: Concrete Blonde - Lullabye : Bloodletting Today is Boomtime, the 58th day of Bureaucracy in the YOLD 3169 My public pgp key: http://mental-graffiti.com/pgp/johannkoenig.pgp
