I want to add the Debian DVD to Ubuntu's repository. To that end, I've copied the proper entry from Debian's sources.list to Ubuntu's sources.list. However I need to add some files to Ubuntu's /var/lib/apt/lists. They are the Debian counter parts of the following files :-
Ubuntu%204.10%20%5fWarty%20Warthog%5f%20-%20Preview%20i386%20Binary-1% 20(20041020)_dists_unstable_main_binary-i386_Packages
Ubuntu%204.10%20%5fWarty%20Warthog%5f%20-%20Preview%20i386%20Binary-1% 20(20041020)_dists_unstable_main_binary-i386_Release
Ubuntu%204.10%20%5fWarty%20Warthog%5f%20-%20Preview%20i386%20Binary-1% 20(20041020)_dists_unstable_restricted_binary-i386_Packages
Ubuntu%204.10%20%5fWarty%20Warthog%5f%20-%20Preview%20i386%20Binary-1% 20(20041020)_dists_unstable_restricted_binary-i386_Release
I've found them but they are named simply Packages and Release in the main and contrib folders on the DVD. How do I get the details to be filled into the new filenames like the files above?
And I probably need to edit /var/lib/apt/cdroms.list file too. At the moment it contains :-
CD::1e4d30e8e87d2707e1cb71bd2cd0fa53-2 "Ubuntu 4.10 _Warty Warthog_ - Preview i386 Binary-1 (20041020)";
CD::1e4d30e8e87d2707e1cb71bd2cd0fa53-2::Label "Ubuntu 4.10 _Warty Warthog_ - Preview i386 Binary-1 (20041020)";
Currently, Synaptic doesn't detect the Debian DVD.
And lastly, can I set the preferences so that Synaptic will look into Ubuntu's own repository first and then into Debian?
Any help or pointers to help will be appreciated. TIA.
