Re: How can I update the pkg lists on a non-networked debian?



But all I want is to update my /var/lib/apt/lists/* so that I can
download only pkgs that *need* to be downloaded (via apt-get -qq
--print-uris install pkg) when I want to install  a certain package.

I guess there's no other way except downloading Packages.txts from the
Debian mirror sites (eg: http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/ ),
copying that to /var/lib/apt/lists/* and continuing with apt-get -qq
--print-uris install pkg to get a list of pkgs to download and putting
that in /var/cache/apt/archives/...
