That doesn't work for the -apt- on my Raspberry Pi, which runs Debian Jessie. But then it's not version 1.1. The Wiki doesn't tell me about that ! :) Its version reads: > > apt -v > apt 1.0.9.8.4 for armhf compiled on Dec 13 2016 22:26:22 > Usage: apt [options] command > <snipped> > You shouldn't need to be installing -libio-socket-ssl-perl- as a separate step, as it will be auto-installed. Does anyone have experience with -gdebi-core- ? That advertises the same feature, and _is_ available on Jessie. And perhaps older systems, I don't know. I have just tried it. It seemed to work fine, although I don't think it is as quick as the dpkg/apt-get steps. But it might be a painless option for those who don't have the newer version of -apt-. > > aptitude show gdebi-core > > Description: simple tool to install deb files > gdebi lets you install local deb packages resolving and installing its > dependencies. apt does the same, but only for remote (http, ftp) located > packages. > > It can also resolve build-depends of local debian/control files. > > This package contains the libraries and command-line utility. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mrw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38299 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108744 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
