apt-get is probably one of the coolest features of Debian. It will download
any packages you need, along with all their dependencies. The days of
hunting for huge dependency trees of RPMs are over. Do an "apt-cache search
<string>" to figure what the package name is called, and then do "apt-get
install <package-name>" to install it. A lot of the configuration is
automated through dialogs, so almost everything should be pretty easy. Let
me know if you need any help.
