As for installing new items (i.e. above and beyond the normal apt-get update,
apt-get upgrade, apt-get dist-upgrade), I would have to know that a particular
new (or old but uninstalled) package exists that I desire to download and
install. Then I would simply add a "apt-get install newpackagename to my
cron-based script.
