If you wish to build your own deb from a tar.gz, see:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=51003

Jens maintains the latest stable debs at:
http://www.impara.de/~jens/ubuntu

Apart from installing them into standard locations (which require root
permission), you could also extract the files from the deb archive into
your
own home locations (see -x option of dpkg(1)) to check them out.

Hope this helps .. Subbu
