APT - List dependencies in installation order
I want to manually download dependencies for a particular package and install them using dpkg.
I have been using apt-get --print-uris --yes install <package_name> to list the URIs and then I download them and install them using dpkg -i ./*.deb.
But it doesn't install the dependencies in the right order for few packages like libreoffice.
So I decided to use the order in which the URIs are listed to install the dependencies.
The URI order is correct on a VM which has Ubuntu 16.04 LTS x86_64 and apt 1.2.29 (amd64).
But it is different on my machine which has Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS x86_64 and apt 1.2.29 (amd64).
How do I determine the correct order in which the dependencies should be installed?
I prefer not to use any additional packages like apt-rdepends that do not come with Ubuntu by default.
apt-config dump and sources.list are identical in both setups.

Use the --simulate flag to print the correct order under all circumstances:apt-get install --simulate <package_name>
