[def boss]

hey every body
i use ubuntu hardy and my machine is offline , i go to a friend who has an internet connection and uses windows os to download packages but i always have problems with dependencies , is there any web site i can get the packages with all its dependencies One-time?

note :
i tried to get software and dependencies from http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/ , but it made me mad .

Hello Def,

Please try the below link:

Just select the base distro, mirror and type in the package name which you wish to download.
This will list all the deb package you would need to install and download.

Once the all the packages are downloaded, just run the below from the directory where all the packages have been downloaded.

sudo dpkg --force-overwrite -i *.deb

Yeah, apt-web. I love it because i have kinda limited internet connectivity.
But it only provide packages from indonesian server (because it is indonesian-student-made).

Although it's not web-based, it is very simple and will make your life offline much easier.
