I've noticed that a lot of software comes as "tar.gz" and I have a cookbook 
method of installing these, but I wanted to know if doing this could screw 
up the database that apt-get, dpkg, and dselect use.  What do I need to 
know as a newbie about this, should I try to restrict myself to *.deb 
packages?  Is there a way of telling woody that I installed a "tar.gz" 
system and have it update?
Thanks,
