Suppose I have a directory in which I have .deb packages for two programs with all there dependencies. I want to know if there is a apt or dpkg command, or another program to install one out of these two programs with all their dependencies. The dependencies should be installed automatically as I install the program.

Try using apt-offline for this. I am using Ubuntu 12.04 (precise) for this!

Download apt-offline package on your Networked PC from packages.ubuntu.com. wget http://ubuntu.hitsol.net/ubuntu//pool/universe/a/apt-offline/apt-offline_1.1.1build1_all.deb

Copy apt-offline_1.1.1build1_all.deb to your NON-Networked Notebook
using an USB-Stick

Next install it there: sudo dpgk -i apt-offline_1.1.1build1_all.deb

Now say you want to install a package called cuckoo on the NON-Networked Notebook execute this command on the NON-Networked Notebook:sudo apt-offline set cuckoo-offline.sig --install-packages cuckoo

Copy the file cuckoo-offline.sig to the Networked PC and run this command:sudo apt-offline get cuckoo-offline.sig --no-checksum --bundle cuckoo-offline.zip This will fetch the package and all it's dependencies.

Finally copy the zip file cuckoo-offline.zip using an USB-Stick to your NON-Networked Notebook and run this command there: sudo apt-offline install cuckoo-offline.zip

Of course you can do this for updates/upgrades and for other packages.
