In 1992, we paid $3200 for 32MB ram for our SCO Unix server. 486/33. No bloody DX or SX. Also paid a small fortune (I don't remember how much) for a 1GB full height SCSI-1 drive.
I think the entire system including the SCO OpenServer 2.0 was $10000.
How do you get anything on to an airgapped network? You don't have many options which makes this easy. Write once optical media (e.g. CDR, DVDR, BDR), provides the most security, as it prevents one avenue for data to escape the airgapped network (presumably the reason for the airgap in the first place).
Which is what the story poster was asking. There was no need for yum or apt.
It's implicit that GP is not talking about.rpms and.debs, but rather the yum and apt files. And yes, you can run an airgapped intranet (I've done it myself for classified data), but it pushes back the question one level.
How do you get said updates onto the airgapped network?
My worst bug ever was a third order bug (A changes B, which later results in C being changed, which finally manifests as visible defect D).
This occurred four hours into a full bore system integration test.
This was using a Z8000 CPU We wound up having to put an ICE on the thing, but because of all the radio signals, the ICE cable had to go into the case, the gap sealed with foil, and the ICE cable also wrapped in foil. Then we recorded (using analog cassette tape) all the FSK radio signals, and play them back into the boxen.
The Z8000 compiler used jump tables and the CPIR (compare/increment/repeat) instruction to implement switch statements. I was the kernel guru, and the error appeared out of a kernel error message. We didn't have any memory protection.
What happened was that someone ignored a return value, and wound up indexing something by -1, which eventually wound up modifying a switch table...

Then Malware is DESIGNED to do something other than what the user intended.
Lucky you. I have a stereotypical Jewish mother...
Yeah, right. Tell that to your mother, and see what happens.
Unfortunately you will tend to get these answers:
1. Yes.
2. It's not working.
3. I just turned it on and it won't work. No, I didn't change anything.
Nope. I ALWAYS disable that customer experience crap, and I got offered two of the three telemetry updates last time I ran Windows Update.
Fortunately, I knew enough to not accept them, and to mark them as "hidden".
I'm shocked, SHOCKED!!!!
Oh wait... How can you tell when a politician is lying? His lips move.
I'll take Anal Bum Cover for $1000, Trebek!
No, he's not. He's asking "Mostly Theater?"
The correct answer is, in fact, No. It is COMPLETELY theater.

Who's willing to join me on a Right-to-be-forgotten campaign about the f***ing Kardashians?
Anyone who deliberately downloads an Adam Sandler movie is obviously insane.

Curse you Hotawa Hawk-eye! I was going to say that, but you beat me to it!!!
Dammit, I was going to ask if one of the mice was named Algernon.

Ant Man was surprisingly good.
You know what, I may have misinterpreted the story poster's question. Let's let it be, because there's no point to arguing here.
Pardon me. Yum and apt applications, not files.

And look at the subject.

What part of offline and airgapped did you have a problem understanding?
Systemd is a nice operating system. All it needs now is a good init subsystem.
I believe only one 777 is known to be missing.... and that's MH 370
So if it "absolutely is a 777 flaperon", that means it's from 370.
The DMCA was a badly flawed law, passed for some pretty good reasons by technologically challenged legislators.
Where "pretty good reasons" = "briefcases full of cash"

CompUSA used to sell "Music CD-R"s. I think the only difference was that the MAFIAA got a cut of the sales.
I heard that Hydroxylic Acid is just as dangerous as DHMO
