In a nutshell, _apt-cmd() should call «_files -g '*.deb'» where it currently calls _deb_packages. I'm not sure whether it would be best to implement this with _alternative or with an alternative at the _regex_arguments level (of which _apt_arguments is a wrapper). I don't have time to investigate this further at the moment, sorry. CHeers, Daniel
