Thanks for taking the time to submit this report. A feature such as the one you request, is available through gdebi. in the command line, if you type:
sudo gdebi xxx.deb the package will be installed, along with all the dependencies. A front end gui exists too, gdebi-gtk. Since this functionality is already available in Ubuntu, I think this bug should be closed. However, I will leave the last word to the apt team, as such feature may be implemented in apt itself. Thanks again. ** Package changed: ubuntu => apt (Ubuntu) -- apt-get lacks localinstall feature https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/422429 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
