One of the things this exercise has shown me is that the 'apt' utility
is deleting (by default) the package after it's downloaded. I just
spent a few hours last night tracking down how to make it stop doing

Thanks for the suggestion. The link above works, but the links it
provides for downloading are not really links. It is not in the Ubuntu
repos,
I did some poking around and came up with something for you to try.
