HOWTO : Solve AptOnCD error - "E: Cannot find filename or size tag"

[bimaljr]

Hi,
I had created a Repository DVD with APTonCD 0.1.98

But when I was go to add this DVD as repository CD-ROM, I got this error :
E: Cannot find filename or size tag

The problem is cached-name of .DEB files. You must remove 1%3a, 2%3a, 3%3a... till 9%3a from all .DEB file names.

There is one problem too. You must create another DVD after doing this. Your old DVD with the error will not repair.

Here is the step-by-step:

1) First, just go to cache folder with this command :
cd /var/cache/apt/

2) Now CHMOD "archives" folder to make permission to rename files inside this folder.
sudo chmod -R 777 archives/

3) Now, do this all commands one by one in terminal/konsole to rename all .DEB files :
for FILE in $(find . -type f -name '*1%3a*'); do NEWNAME=$(echo $FILE|sed s/'1%3a'//); mv -v $FILE $NEWNAME; done

for FILE in $(find . -type f -name '*2%3a*'); do NEWNAME=$(echo $FILE|sed s/'2%3a'//); mv -v $FILE $NEWNAME; done

for FILE in $(find . -type f -name '*3%3a*'); do NEWNAME=$(echo $FILE|sed s/'3%3a'//); mv -v $FILE $NEWNAME; done

for FILE in $(find . -type f -name '*4%3a*'); do NEWNAME=$(echo $FILE|sed s/'4%3a'//); mv -v $FILE $NEWNAME; done

for FILE in $(find . -type f -name '*5%3a*'); do NEWNAME=$(echo $FILE|sed s/'5%3a'//); mv -v $FILE $NEWNAME; done

for FILE in $(find . -type f -name '*6%3a*'); do NEWNAME=$(echo $FILE|sed s/'6%3a'//); mv -v $FILE $NEWNAME; done

for FILE in $(find . -type f -name '*7%3a*'); do NEWNAME=$(echo $FILE|sed s/'7%3a'//); mv -v $FILE $NEWNAME; done

for FILE in $(find . -type f -name '*8%3a*'); do NEWNAME=$(echo $FILE|sed s/'8%3a'//); mv -v $FILE $NEWNAME; done

for FILE in $(find . -type f -name '*9%3a*'); do NEWNAME=$(echo $FILE|sed s/'9%3a'//); mv -v $FILE $NEWNAME; done

(Help : This command will remove the "1%3a" with "2%3a" "3%3a" "4%3a"... till "9%3a" )

4) DONE...
