Feasible, I guess.  Practical, not really.  I only need to install 3 or 4 
packages.  The amount of time & effort is really not worth it.  I'll 
prolly just use wget to download the packages, and then dpkg to install 
them.  I'm just angry & bitter that the supposed superior .deb isn't 
capable of doing what RPM has been able to do for many many years.  Those 
damn GNU hippies.
