Include apt-offline for easy offline package management
apt-offline is a package included in Debian squeeze and later for
shuttling apt-get cache files and packages from an online machine to an
offline machine. It is quite easy to use in conjunction with a USB thumb
drive, it is 80k and its written in python, so its Architecture: all.
Here is a simple example of how to use it:
For now, it would be great to just include apt-offline in the Tails
image. In the long run, it could be useful for other related features.
For us it is useful for our Cleanroom project to use TAILS as the distro
for the offline management of crypto keys:
