this would be the title of the question and the first sentence in the mail:
Answer to Re 3: repository download again - how to install offline
https://trisquel.info/de/forum/re-3-repository-download-again-how-install-offline
"The error is because you are missing the Type:deb line."
What do I have to add in the file: trisquel.sources?
I have got:
Types: deb deb-src
When I add:
deb deb-src deb line (or deb-line)
bash: deb (deb-line) is unknown
I need a type which opens the packed packages
------------------------------
$ sudo apt install emacs
bash: install: cannot stat 'emacs': No such file or directory
It looks for a file or directory but there are only packed packages
which have to be unpacked in order to be installed.
Maintainers and others surely know what happens if somebody installs
some packages from the Internet.
There has to be a procedure which looks for the packages, unpacks them
and takes it and installs it.
If this procedure is not included in the "trisquel.sources" file
then it is impossible to install something offline.
I am sure there is a solution.
But I don´t know.
thanks
Gottfried

If /media/alle/25324e35-5a58-4712-8e36-c5f612436cb3/RepositoryTrisquel/ is where you downloaded the whole repository, I believe /etc/apt/sources.list.d/trisquel.sources should be:
Enabled: yes
Types: deb deb-src

I have checked that in my "trisquel.sources" and changed everything
according that:
----------------
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/trisquel.sources:
URIs:
file:/media/alle/25324e35-5a58-4712-8e36-c5f612436cb3/RepositoryTrisquel/
here is my Repository on the external harddisk:

$ sudo apt install emacs
bash: error: package emacs cannot be found
installation fails because package cannot be found.
I don´t know why it cannot be found, because the path seems to be right.
thanks for help
