apt-offline only install specific packages

apt-offline seems like a really great option if you have a server that does not have network connectivity and you want to install a few packages on it.

The problem I have is that I only want to install a few packages and there seem to only be options for an upload or an upgrade and to also install the few packages I want. How do I get apt-offline to only create an install database for the packages I want to install?

You can install other packages. If you use apt-offline with the --install-packages option like for example: sudo apt-offline set package-offline.sig --install-packages package_name

It will create a signature for the installation of package_name and its dependencies.
