Dear Debian user,
I am taking the first eight CDs of Debian Sarge to a low bandwidth
location for install. These CDs have most of the software I need.
Now, I know that mplayer insn't in Sarge. What I would like to know
is, which packages are to be taken so that all dependencies for
mplayer are complete? Or would you suggest some way by which I can get
only mplayer and it's dependencies from debian-multimedia.org?
debmirror, perhaps?
when you have a sarge system with internet connection and without
mplayer, you can get the URIs with
apt-get -y --download-only --print-uris install mplayer mencoder
(or with other packages).
This will give you a list of packages you can wget.
with a little sed you get only the URIs:
apt-get -y --download-only --print-uris install mplayer mencoder |
sed -r "1,/additional disk space/d;s/'(.+)'.+/\\1/"
