Subject: Project Deb Bundle - input needed {zeroth version}
To: IITDLUG <iitdlug@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
I would like to share my current work. yesterday I worked on this
concept and now i have zeroth version. basically, I am just showing
the idea, want to take comment and will modify script accordingly.
Basically, I have installed ubuntu more then 10 times in last 10
month. I hate again and again installation of software.
So basic idea of deb_bundle is to create a .zip files to .deb files
which you need to for installing a perticular software
= purpose =
? * This will help to user those who do not have Internet
= what is bundle =
? * It is a zip files contains many .deb files, for example
vboxgtk.deb_bundle ?will be containing all the necessary and dependant
files init. So you can actually download vboxgtk.deb_bundle files and
install it instead of going to synaptic packages manager
= How to create bundle =
$ ./Bundle_Creator <packages>
EX ? ? $ ./Bundle_Creator vboxgtk virtualbox-guest-additions
this will download all necessary files and packages into single files
called vboxgtk.deb_bundle
= How to install bundle =
$ ./Bundle_Installer ?<BundleFiles>
EX ? ? $ ./Bundle_Installer ?vboxgtk.deb_bundle
How does this differ from apt-get using various sources?
I mean to say that instead of putting deb files as zip;
why don't you provide apt repository?
Thanks and Regards
