This will put the packages in /var/cache/apt/archives. Apt-move will
look there by default.
This I've been doing from the last 3 days in sessions of 2-3 hrs. so now
I have about 200 MB worth of repository. I do see all the packages in
/var/cache/apt/archives in .deb format

Step three Run apt move to create the archive structure
Make sure you have enough disk space first.
Code:
sudo apt-move get sudo apt-move move
The first one
Code:
apt-move get
went fine giving this output
updating from local package files....
All Done, exiting
The second however
apt-move move
gave the output
Moving files .....
Skipping files ....
gave the whole list of the files .deb which I've downloaded
& then gave
All done, exiting.
Now my questions are :-
1. When it says updating from local package files what is it
updating?
2. Should I run apt-get update before running the two apt-move
commands?
3. Is it normal for this skipping files or should it have given
some other output?
The wiki is silent as to what output should be given.
4. To have a verbose output should I just include
Code:
apt-move -v get
or something different.
Looking for directions from all.
