Greetings. I am trying to add a directory to the list of sources for APT to use for installing deb packages.
The dirctory is /home/skippi/0data/backup/debian30/debian I have been using the APT HOWTO. In section 2.2 it tells me to use dpkg-scanpackages to create a Packages.gz file. I did that and it worked fine, but when I try to add the directory to my sources.list it will not work. It tells me there is an error in line 10 (the line I'm adding). I am adding deb file:/home/skippi/0data/backup/debian30/debian Evidently either this is wrong, or I am missing a step. Can anyone enlighten me? thanks Skippi -----+++++----- On The Fly Photography http://204EastSouth.com -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GAT d-@ s: a C++ UL++ L++(+++) P E- W++ !N o?
