Package: apt
Version: 0.5.4
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
In the files /usr/share/doc/apt/offline.*, the "Using APT on both
machines" section has a bug. Line 173 of the plain-text version reads:
# apt-get --no-d -o dir::etc::status=/var/lib/dpkg/status dist-upgrade
^^^
but should read:
# apt-get --no-d -o dir::state::status=/var/lib/dpkg/status dist-upgrade
^^^^^
because the location of the status file is given by APT config option
Dir::State::Status as described in:
/usr/share/doc/apt/examples/configure-index.gz
(and there is no config option Dir::Etc:Status).
Patch to the original .sgml:
