The process is not complicated and this is the only right way to do it without possibly breaking the system. If you just install .deb file there is a chance that won't work properly on your current version of Debian, or work with problems because it lacking libc\ABI compatibility. It will be bad if SP Flash die with SIGV during erasing\flashing.
