I want to install some software that I downloaded as a .deb file, but it did not come from a Debian mirror. Instead it came from a ftp download from a developer's web site. The only way I have ever used dselect, dpkg, or apt-get have been to get stuff from a Debian mirror and then unpack and install it. This happened all automatically. Now I have a file in my home directory. Where do I put it? What commands and options do I use?
And most important - where are the answers to these questions in the documentation? Thanks. -- Paul E Condon [EMAIL PROTECTED]
