Thanks!

But after much mucking around with both Ubuntu Tweak and the different 
repositories, I realized that getdeb is available as default. I turned 
that on and RSS Owl came in that :) (in Synaptic).

I am still looking at the application but Thunderbird's RSS reader is 
very basic. It tends to treat it as email; RSS Owl has far more features 
than default application. I'd put in my thoughts later on that though.

Thanks for the help guys :) Truly appreciate it.
