That installs $package with no difficulty. Good! Thanks!
My understanding is that "apt-offline install <filename>.bundle"
upgrades the cache of data needed for the upgrade but doesn't
perform the upgrade.
"apt-get install <package>" upgrades a specific package.
To upgrade all packages available from the bundle I tried "apt-get install *".
* is expanded to files and directories in the current directory.
Definitely not the intention.
"apt-get upgrade" attempts to access network sources
which also is not the intention. How is an upgrade
from the local cache invoked?
Thanks, ... P.
