If that were an apt repository, one could navigate to the .deb files
themselves and download them to be installed offline with dpkg. Once
one finds a package in the above web interface, there are only 3
things one can download:
-> Package Information Summary
-> a p5i file that contains only the package description (not the actual files)
-> Package Manifest (list of files w/ checksums, no actual files)

Using just the web browser (or tools available on GNU/Linux systems),
how does one download the actual files for this package?
