kubuntu without internet???

[Alexander Smirnov]

Hello

save the following script to you ~/bin as apt-uris, give it executable 
permissions (chmod +x). Then execute

apt-uris install ntfs-3g

This will show you URLs you need.

The script:
#!/bin/sh
apt-get $@  --print-uris -y | grep http | awk '{print $1}' | tr -d \'
