Forum: apt-offline 0.9.0 released
Posted by: Ritesh Sarraf apt-offline is an Offline APT Package Manager for APT based systems, i.e. mostly Debian and Debian derived distributions. apt-offline can fully update/upgrade your disconnected Debian box without the need of connecting it to the network. * It works by generating a signature of the disconnected box. * You carry the signature to a net connected box running anything (Windows/Linux/Mac) * apt-offline downloads all data as per the signature. This includes apt database, packages, bug reports. The data can be bundled to a single file to carry it easily on a USB stick * The bundle file is all that is needed on the disconnected Debian box. Apt on this box will feel like everything was downloaded the traditional (apt-get update/upgrade) way. While I'm working toward getting it packaged and included into Debian, I am looking for users who could test and provide feedback. I'm more keen on feedback on the interface and options/arguments you'd like to see.
