It's not for everyone, but if you do not mind using a command line, you can try
dpkg -i package-name.deb where package-name.deb is the file of stuff that you want to install. Look for a file called Packages.gz that contains the standard descriptions of all the .deb files you may want to install as well as the order in which to install them. You can read this file with the command zless Packages.gz I know all of this may sound a little clumsy, but if you don't mind reading the descriptions and understanding what you want, you'll end up learning a heck of a lot about what you put on your system. I've been using debian a little over three years now, and I still use dpkg. I recommend it to experts and _patient_ beginners.
