Package: apt Version: 0.3.13 Every once in a while, I want to install a .deb package that is not part of the Debian distribution. Currently, I install it with dpkg, see what dependancies show up as unmet, then use apt-get to install the required packages.
It would be very useful if apt-get would recognize a .deb package name and deal properly. For example: apt-get install jpilot-0.95-1.i386.deb ... would offer to install any missing (or outdated) packages needed by this package. Thank You, David H. Silber P.S. This would also simplify the installation directions needed for such ``external'' packages. -- David H.
