Hi there, ==============================================================================
In http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-basico.en.html#s-dpkg-scanpackages section 2.2 states "... To use the packages, finally, add: deb file:/root debs/ After that just use the APT commands as usual." but it doesn't say where this is to be added. I suggest: "... To use the packages, finally, at the top of your sources.list file add the line: deb file:/root debs/ After that just use the APT commands as usual." ============================================================================== man sources.list states "URI SPECIFICATION The currently recognized URI types are cdrom, file, http, and ftp." but the HOWTO http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-basico.en.html#s-sources.list states "The /etc/apt/sources.list file can contain several types of lines. APT knows how to deal with archives of types http, ftp, file (local files, e.g., a directory containing a mounted ISO9660 filesystem) and ssh, that I know of." Which is correct? ============================================================================== -- 73, Ged. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
