The quick answer: Don't use apt for those packages. Use "dpkg -i *.deb"
in the directory with those packages.
The long answer:

You seem to be confused on this point. Debian is a community of volunteers,
corporate sponsors, zealots, hackers (not haX0rZ), etc. The maintainers of
the debian project do this for the love
