/var/cache/apt/archives/ to be exact.


thx, found it :-)

that's what i did. except, in my case my notebook was low on diskspace,
so i actually nfs-mounted /var/cache/apt/archives/ from the other
workstation,


so there were two locally-visible /var/cache/apt/archives/ ?

and then ran apt-get dist-upgrade as usual.


How did apt find the remote one, &/or distinguish between the two? Or does it search both?

the notebook then downloaded the missing packages that the other machine
had not needed and then happily did the install.

greetings, martin.


cheers,
rik
