If you have net access, type 'sudo dpkg-restore' in your term window.

Code Sample
sudo: dpkg-restore: command not found

How do I fix this?

I am not sure where this topic would go best.  Mod, please move it if you think some other forum is better.

This is a temporary glitch:

It is not a glitch.

It, the dpkg-restore download script, was removed, because Debian removed all references to oldstabe from the Debian repositories.

It is much easier to change an extension versus changing the distro when the location of oldstabe was uncertain.

Now that Debian has provided a permanent home for woody
the download script can be reinstated.

I tried what you mentioned in the other topic:
Code Sample
# /etc/init.d/mydsl-install dsl-dpkg.dsl
# apt-get update

Returned with:
Code Sample
mydsl-install dsl-dpkg.dsl
bash: mydsl-install command not found

Using sudo did not help either.

use full path, as root

# /etc/init.d/mydsl-install dsl-dpkg.dsl

Or as user dsl

$ mydsl-load dsl-dkg.dsl

Then as root

# apt-get update
