Hi Siju,
I felt that you may would like to know that your best friends is
groups.google.com. Use simple key word that you would think you may had
written to find some help.
Back to your solution that I proposed :
Because I am new to the world of Linux I strongly use the man command. I
also made some reading about the way Debian make it magical to install.
'apt' is a simple yet fast tool set to find or manage package. I was
looking throught the 'man apt' output when I recall that 'apt' strongly
use dpkg. So I made 'man dpkg' to find this proposal :
ACTIONS
dpkg -i | --install package_file...
Install the package. If --recursive or -R option is
specified, package_file must refer to a directory instead.
So you may try to do :
dpkg -i subversion
but I strongly recommend to at least look at the way it will be install.
So look at 'man dpkg'
If man pages are not install on your system you may look at the answer
of google. All my friends realy on it, I do but I also realy on them
because of the different interest. This is why I also reply fellow user.
LMA
Hoping my french ain't got you confused in the way I wrote english.
