"man apt-get" says: *** -d, --download-only Download only; package files are only retrieved, not unpacked or installed. *** Is that what you are looking for? :-?

It has already been pointed out that -d/--download-only is the correct option to pass to apt-get in order to keep apt-get from installing retrieved Debian packages. You have not explained why you want to do this, but you might want to take a look at debget which fetches Debian packages from the mirrors and places them in the current working directory. debget is shipped in the debget or debian-goodies packages and the latter contains a couple of other tools you might find useful. -- .''`.

I would like to launch a dist-upgrade, but I want it to happen face to me. I'd rather pre-download the .debs and launch real dist-upgrade face to face. Thank you all for your indications. I already have all the needed packages downloaded, I'll dist-upgrade tomorow. -- Architecte Informatique chez Blueline/Gulfsat: Administration Systeme, Recherche & Developpement +261 3456 000 19 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
