Hi. I am trying to fabricate a script, which runs as a _normal user_, checks my debs in a specified directory, and recursively download all of the dependencies. I can iterate on the packages and get the dependencies parsed from 'dpkg-deb -f package', but how can I download packages? I have thinking on something like: apt-get --download-only -o Dir::Cache::Archives=store install zsh But still, apt-get would like to place the lock in /var/lib/dpkg/, where I do not have write access. How can I change this? 'man 5 apt.conf' does not help what config option should I override, and I was unable to find a complete apt.conf reference. The best I have found is: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto But does not contains an apt.conf reference.
