how to upgrade a debian system not connected to network
I have a two debian/unstable systems (let us name them PC-A and PC-B).
Both have got different packages installed. PC-A is connected to
internet with 2 MBps link and so there is no problem in upgrading it
regularly.
PC-B is not connected to internet. So I whenever I need to upgrade the
system I download the 5 CD's of sid form
ftp://ftp.fsn.hu/pub/CDROM-Images/debian-unofficial/sid/ ,
burn then in RW-CDs and then upgrade the system.
I want to know is there any method by which I can download the packages
requiring upgrade for the PC-B in PC-A (remember PC-A and PC-B have
different list of installed packages!)?
If I can do that, I can copy the .deb files to /var/cache/apt/archives
of PC-B via a portable usb-dsik and execute apt-get upgrade.
Any help will be appriciated.
Thanks
JSS
