Package: apt Version: 0.3.4 Severity: wishlist Hi,
this is probably easy to implement. apt should allow to download (and install?) already installed and up-to-date packages. This makes sense for several reasons, although I only have two of them at the moment: * if (some) files belonging to a certain package have been deleted or changed by error * if I want to download packages for updates on another computer, which is not connected to the internet Maybe '-f' is the way to do it, but it doesn't work at the moment. Thanks, Ulf -- System Information Debian Release: potato Kernel Version: Linux pkfp20 2.2.7 #1 Thu Apr 29 16:54:58 CEST 1999 i586 unknown Versions of the packages apt depends on: ii libc6 2.1.1-3 GNU C Library: Shared libraries and timezone ii libstdc++2.9 2.91.61-1 The GNU stdc++ library (egcs version)
