,----[ ~/bin/pkgdesc apt-zip ]
| Package: apt-zip
| Description: Update a non-networked computer using apt and removable media
|  These scripts simplify the process of using dselect and apt on a
|  non-networked Debian box, using removable media like ZIP floppies and
|  USB keys.
|  One generates a `fetch' script (supporting backends such as wget and
|  lftp, in a modular, extensible way) to be run on a host with better
|  connectivity, check space constraints of your removable media, and
|  then install the package on your Debian box.
