I have a laptop running Ubuntu 14.04 with no internet connection. I want to use Synaptic to install software and packages to it, referring to this documentation.

The problem is, I do not have synaptic installed on the laptop, so I need to download the Synaptic package and all of its dependencies (deb files) on another PC and then transfer them to the laptop.

I found the deb files here, but I can only download one file at a time. Is there a way that I could download Synaptic and all of its dependencies at once?

Check out "Sushi Huh?" and the "Keryx Project"

http://sushi-huh.sourceforge.net/

"Sushi, huh? is a program that allows downloading all the packages needed to install the programs you want on GNU/Linux without an Internet connection on your own computer."

https://launchpad.net/keryxproject

"Keryx is an offline package management system Keryx is a portable, cross-platform package manager for APT-based (Ubuntu, Debian) systems. It provides a graphical interface for gathering updates, packages, and dependencies for offline computers. Keryx is free and open source."

I found the deb files here,

That's not the synaptic package. Is the synaptic source code, and the build prerequisites.

The synaptic package to install is here http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/synaptic
