Debian Archive

[David Kirk]

Hey,

I am re-installing one of my Debian Woody PC's. I have done the base install ok, but I don't what to spend hours downloading deb's that I have previously downloaded.

Before I re-installed, I copied /var/cache/apt/archives to another PC. I have copied that directory back to the re-installed PC, but when I apt-get install <package> it starts downloading it again.

Does anyone know how I can get it to use the files in /var/cache/apt/archives?


Later

David Kirk
