Get dependencies for local deb file? #107

Open metal450 opened 4 years ago

metal450 commented 4 years ago

Given a local .deb file, is it possible to use apt-offline to generate a bundle of just the dependencies required to install that .deb file?

i.e. rather than 

apt-offline set vim.sig --install-packages vim
apt-offline get vim.sig --bundle vim.zip

Something to the effect of

app-offline set x.sig --install-dependencies ./x.deb
app-offline get x.sig --bundle dependanciesForX.zip

?

No. Currently apt-offline doesn't deal with .debs for this information. It rather relies on apt.

But this could be a feature to have. Just that it'd be some scraping to be done from the .deb's metadata. When using apt, we delegate that to it instead and apt does a good job there.

Dealing with a .deb metadata would mean:

But this is a nice handy feature to have. I don't have bandwidth to implement this soon but I would be delighted to see this feature.

I'll mark it as a wishlist for now and wishfully hope someone else to beat me at it.

Thanks, Ritesh

Cool...thanks for the quick reply, bummer it isn't there yet or on the horizon, but glad it sounds useful & may be someday! :)

I'm afraid I don't have the capability personally either, but in the interim, I suppose I can just manually churn out a long command for the few .debs I have that are distributed outside of apt (i.e. --install-packages dep1 dep2 dep3 dep4, etc).

Fingers crossed that this ends up getting tackled & eases the task of future reformats :)

I was looking for this feature too.

Is there a way to pass the dependency from the Depends line to the set command? From the above example, could one call this:

sudo apt-offline set local-deb-offline.sig --install-packages libacl1 (>= 2.2.23), libblkid1 (>= 2.24), libc6 (>= 2.30), libkmod2 (>= 5~), libselinux1 (>= 2.1.9), adduser, dpkg (>= 1.19.3) | systemd-sysv, libudev1 (= 245.5-2), util-linux (>= 2.27.1)

I don't know how to specify the version ranges to the set command.

This would be similar to the apt-get satisfy command.

I am wanting to do this because I have an apt package coming from a PPA which is not configured on the offline machine. The application is the only .deb that will come from the PPA, the dependencies will all come from repos known to the offline system.

This approach is bound to break. The dependencies listed above are that of dpkg. apt only manipulates versions, that are present in the repository, against what the user requests.

apt-offline ensures to not duplicate steps that are better dealt by dpkg/apt.

Why not ? It is an offline machine. So you could just enable that PPA repository and then let apt and apt-offline do the work of extracting the dependency.

So what'll be needed is a cross-platform python-apt library, which to my knowledge is not cross-platform.
