Installing dependencies OFFLINE. (SOLVED)

Post by fpd »

I use an internet cafe running windows to download files (.DEBs, deps) for my various LM systems. I learned how to install .DEB files, but how and where do I install the downloaded DEPENDENCIES? Thank you!

Hi,

An easy way to install the downloaded DEB package is to:

1. Open a terminal in the folder you downloaded them
2. run

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg -i *.deb
3. done

That should do it :D

Regards,

Thank you, Unexi, that command line instruction fixed my problem.

Just to share my failing attempt: I tried installing each .DEB individually with GDEBI, but nearly every attempt stopped short, stating something to the effect, "Need to first install (something).cli" - and these errors seemed circular (each referenced the other, in a circle).
