How to specify directory for apt-get to save the packages
9,256
From the apt-get
manpage:
/var/cache/apt/archives/
Storage area for retrieved package files. Configuration Item:
Dir::Cache::Archives.
You can specify it like this:
$ sudo apt-get -o Dir::Cache::Archives=/tmp install wget
Note that this will fail unless that directory has a partial sub-directory
