I have that deb file but was hoping to find a *.tar.gz file as I cant remember
how to adapt my sources list to use a local file. 

I assume I have to mirror the directory tree structure of the dists on the HD
that I use for transfering the files, but am not sure what I need to add in
the way of contents file or whatever is needed to get apt to recognise the
files.

I have been ill and just cant work out how I set it up before, I'm sure I just
installed a more up to date binary package, then after connecting to the net
did an upgrade that way. 

I realy want to get KDE 2.* installed again and that would need a net
connection unless I could compile my own with the source of 2.2 that is on a
recent cd from the Linux Format magazine.

But until I understand what I am doing again, no chance of that ;-)
