How to install the same package on multiple ubuntu machine?

[Md Ashickur Rahman Noor]

There are several ways to do it. First is remastersys. Second is aptoncd,
third is copy paste. I prefer copy paste. Here is the process

>From the pc where all packages are installed
First copy /var/cache/apt/pkgcache.bin and /var/cache/apt/srcpkgcache.bin

Then copy all /var/cache/apt/archives *.deb file.

Then in all other pc

Goto synaptic from File-->Add Downloaded Packages
first open the two .bin file and then all *.deb file.

If it not works check those files are copied or not. If not do the process
again in other PC. Hope it helps you.
