there are some apps available on ubuntu repo but not in debian repo.
but ubuntu is based on debian. so i think.... i can just download the packages from ubuntu and install it on debian.
here's how i do it...
first, install gdebi for easier .deb packages installation:
then, search the packages you want. example, i want to install pyneighborhood, so i open this link:
make sure your debian have correct dependencies. example, pyneighborhood from intrepid depends on smbclient >= 3.0.22. let's check smbclient on debian:
so, it's 3.2.4 which is >= 3.0.22. that's mean we have all required dependencies.
now, let's download the packages from the nearest mirror:
or you can also swim in to the pool:
after it's download, just open a terminal to install it:
that's it. the ubuntu package is now installed in debian.
now, i like to know what ubuntu apps that you missed the most and not yet available on debian? post your voice!

sudo gdebi pyneighborhood_0.4-0ubuntu5_all.debthis will also download all its dependencies if it's not yet installed.
that's it. the ubuntu package is now installed in debian.

if, and only if your package have all its dependencies satisfied,
you can install your package without internet connection
