Yes. Just do this at the command line instead of apt-get install youtube-dl. (After "sudo su" and giving the password,) wget "https://raw.github.com/rg3/youtube-dl/2011.10.19/youtube-dl"; -O /bin/youtube-dl I would like to warn you that most software in Debian 5.0 (stable) will be really old (and the online software repository will not have a lot of recently released software) and this can cause a lot of issues. Unfortunately the solution to this is to use a testing version of Debian, which would mean that you have to cross your fingers every time you do an upgrade as it is *guaranteed* to break something. I recommend that you switch to Ubuntu until you have had _some_ familiarity with Linux before coming back to Debian.
