Hi, I read the manual page of apt-get forth and back, but I still don't understand it: If I want apt-get to download package files, I use apt-get -d install. If the package happens to be installed apt-get -d --reinstall install helps. But if the package has dependencies, the other packages are not downloaded :-(
Do I miss a magic command line switch? Do I need a work-around, like first checking the dependencies somehow (how?) and giving the result to apt-get? Note: the solution must be scriptable. Many thanks in advance! Cheers, WB
