Hello all. I asked a friend to ftp and burn down openoffice for woody from deb ftp://ftp.uninett.no/pub/linux/packages/openoffice-debian woody main contrib
- the only 'url' i knew. I wasn't sure what exactly is needed, though. Now i've got a cd here with the following: Two Packages-files located at cdrom/woody/main/binary-i386/contrib/Packages.gz and ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /main/Packages.gz originating from this source-tree: ftp://ftp.uninett.no/pub/linux/packages/openoffice-debian/dists/woody/contrib/binary-i386 and ftp://~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~main/binary-i386 The 'contrib Packages.gz' contains the description for the package <openoffice.org 1.0.1-6> with 'filename: pool/openoffice.org/openoffice.org_1.0.1-6_all.deb' where the 'main' one is for <debhelper> with the filename 'pool/main/debhelper/debhelper_4.0.2.openoffice_all.deb' ( sounds like the right package for now....;-) There's no further 'Packages' or 'Packages.gz' on cd. Then there are the binaries. This deb-files are in cdrom/openoffice-org. Looking up their original source i found ftp://ftp.uninett.no/pub/linux/packages/openoffice-debian/pool/contrib/openoffice.org/ I got a little confused about it. It's quite a bunch of stuff. Are there all 'control files' apt needs to install ? And how to proceed ? The cd-tree isn't in the right form, probably. But what then would it be ? Or can i tune apt to find things on CD anyway ? Perhaps i should create a local repository. But i didn't find a detailed description how to do that yet. So what exactly is the 'physically' file path apt will accept ? Whrere to place the binaries, whrere the Packages.gz (if that's really enough...). How to set up sources.lst then. And what about the implied 'filename' paths ? I guess i have to change them. I hope this is quite a debian question, this time.... any help greatly appreciated ! -- micha. micha: ls cdrom/openoffice.org/ openoffice.org_1.0.1-5+woody6.diff.gz openoffice.org_1.0.1-5+woody6.dsc openoffice.org_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org_1.0.1-6.diff.gz openoffice.org_1.0.1-6.dsc openoffice.org_1.0.1-6_powerpc.changes openoffice.org_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org_1.0.1-7.diff.gz openoffice.org_1.0.1-7.dsc openoffice.org_1.0.1.orig.tar.gz openoffice.org-bin_1.0.1-5+woody6_i386.deb openoffice.org-bin_1.0.1-6_i386.deb openoffice.org-bin_1.0.1-6_powerpc.deb openoffice.org-bin_1.0.1-7_i386.deb openoffice.org-debian-files_1.0.1-6+4_all.deb openoffice.org-debian-files_1.0.1-6+4.dsc openoffice.org-debian-files_1.0.1-6+4.tar.gz openoffice.org-debian-files_1.0.1-7+1_all.deb openoffice.org-debian-files_1.0.1-7+1.dsc openoffice.org-debian-files_1.0.1-7+1.tar.gz openoffice.org-help-de_0.20020222-1.1_all.deb openoffice.org-help-de_0.20020222-1.1.diff.gz openoffice.org-help-de_0.20020222-1.1.dsc openoffice.org-help-de_0.20020222-1_all.deb openoffice.org-help-de_0.20020222-1.diff.gz openoffice.org-help-de_0.20020222-1.dsc openoffice.org-help-de_0.20020222-1_i386.deb openoffice.org-help-de_0.20020222-2_all.deb openoffice.org-help-de_0.20020222-2.diff.gz openoffice.org-help-de_0.20020222-2.dsc openoffice.org-help-de_0.20020222.orig.tar.gz openoffice.org-help-en_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-help-en_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-help-es_0.20020222-1_all.deb openoffice.org-help-es_0.20020222-1.diff.gz openoffice.org-help-es_0.20020222-1.dsc openoffice.org-help-es_0.20020222-2_all.deb openoffice.org-help-es_0.20020222-2.diff.gz openoffice.org-help-es_0.20020222-2.dsc openoffice.org-help-es_0.20020222.orig.tar.gz openoffice.org-help-fr_0.20020222-1_all.deb openoffice.org-help-fr_0.20020222-1.diff.gz openoffice.org-help-fr_0.20020222-1.dsc openoffice.org-help-fr_0.20020222-2_all.deb openoffice.org-help-fr_0.20020222-2.diff.gz openoffice.org-help-fr_0.20020222-2.dsc openoffice.org-help-fr_0.20020222.orig.tar.gz openoffice.org-help-it_0.20020222-1_all.deb openoffice.org-help-it_0.20020222-1.diff.gz openoffice.org-help-it_0.20020222-1.dsc openoffice.org-help-it_0.20020222-2_all.deb openoffice.org-help-it_0.20020222-2.diff.gz openoffice.org-help-it_0.20020222-2.dsc openoffice.org-help-it_0.20020222.orig.tar.gz openoffice.org-help-sv_0.20020222-1_all.deb openoffice.org-help-sv_0.20020222-1.diff.gz openoffice.org-help-sv_0.20020222-1.dsc openoffice.org-help-sv_0.20020222-2_all.deb openoffice.org-help-sv_0.20020222-2.diff.gz openoffice.org-help-sv_0.20020222-2.dsc openoffice.org-help-sv_0.20020222.orig.tar.gz openoffice.org-l10n-ar_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-ar_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-da_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-da_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-de_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-de_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-el_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-el_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-en_1.0.1-5+woody6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-en_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-en_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-es_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-es_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-fr_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-fr_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-it_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-it_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-ja_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-ja_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-ko_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-ko_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-nl_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-nl_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-pl_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-pl_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-pt_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-pt_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-ru_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-ru_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-sv_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-sv_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-tr_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-tr_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-zh-cn_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-zh-cn_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-zh-tw_1.0.1-6_all.deb openoffice.org-l10n-zh-tw_1.0.1-7_all.deb openoffice.org-spellcheck-de_20020701-3.diff.gz openoffice.org-spellcheck-de_20020701-3.dsc openoffice.org-spellcheck-de_20020701.orig.tar.gz openoffice.org-spellcheck-de-at_20020701-3_all.deb openoffice.org-spellcheck-de-ch_20020701-3_all.deb openoffice.org-spellcheck-de-de_20020701-3_all.deb openoffice.org-spellcheck-fr_20020727-2.dsc openoffice.org-spellcheck-fr_20020727-2.tar.gz openoffice.org-spellcheck-fr-fr_20020727-2_all.deb WS_FTP.LOG -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
