If you have unlimited and fast internet connection, you could copy files in PCLOS’ repository into your local folder. If you want to copy those files, then you should copy them on right arrangement, what i mean was the arrangement that is similar to the original repository on the Internet.

You don’t have to install all folders, the most important is RPMS.extra, RPMS.kde, RPMS.main, RPMS.nonfree, RPMS.kde4, RPMS.sam and base.

For example you could copy all files into /mnt/installer/localRep

The next thing you have to do is specifying that path into /etc/apt/sources.list. Write the path on the top lines of the sources.list file. You could use gedit or vi to do this. The text you have to write is:

rpm file:/mnt/installer/localRep

If you don’t want to write it manually using text editor, you could use synaptic either.

Everyone who uses Linux must be aware of GnuCash. It’s an accounting software that is free and opensource. When i was reading my rss subscription from portableapps.com this morning, i was suprised to know that gnucash is already available on portable format.

Hence you can manage your accounting data easily and freely on the go. Since this software was bundled on portable format, you can bring your app and data on usb flash disk, pendrive usb disk, memory card, ipod, etc.

Although it was bundled on portable format, it still has many features such as:

• Double-Entry Accounting
• Bank/Liability/Expense Accounts
• Stock/Bond/Mutual Fund Accounts
• Small-Business Accounting (Customers, Vendors, Jobs, Invoices, Accounts Payable/Receivable)
• QIF/OFX/HBCI Import, Transaction Matching
• Reports, Graphs
• Scheduled Transactions
• Financial Calculations

But the most important is IT’S FREE AND OPEN SOURCE
