APT is already installed and gdebi appears to be unmaintained. Just don't forget to prepend ./ (or use the full path) for 'apt' otherwise it will assume you want to download a package with the name 'package_name.deb' (which most likely doesn't exist). apt install /full/path/to/file.deb apt install ./file.deb # if you are already in the correct directory Kind regards, Andrei -- http://wiki.debian.org/FAQsFromDebianUser
