Hey, how are you? i need to install gnome for debian, and i have all .debs in a cd. I donīt have an internet connection. i copy the .debs in a folder and I need to tell apt-get to get the .deb from that forlder in my hard drive ,and i use dpkg-scanpackages, but i have a problem. This are the step iīve done:
iīve done it first with a few .deb just to try with something easier, in stead of all of .deb gnome needs.
cd /var/
mkdir debian
mv *.deb /var/debian
cd /var/debian
ls
