Add Local Repository to Synaptic?
« on: August 12, 2014, 10:46:18 PM »
Hi Biff et al,

I added a local software source to Synaptic after creating a Packages.gz file from .deb files I had previously downloaded.

I've also created a Release.gpg file.

Code: [Select]
Archive: stable
Component: main
Origin: Debian
Label: A la carte
Architecture: i386

When doing a Reload in Synaptic or using "apt-get update" in Terminal, there are still failures for Release, Translation-en_US and Translation-en.

There is nothing appearing in the Origin pane that represents my Local Repository.

When I try to install a package it is still attempting to retrieve it from the Internet.

Thanks, Michael.
