How do I install Debian packages which are not in the repository

[Rainer Gutkas]

Hi there!

I tried to install xvidcap on my computer. So it isn't in the repository.
What I tried is adding the source to sources.list ... just gave errors 
with synaptic
Download the deb and try to teach synaptic to open it, but couldn't 
figure out how this works.
I know from sarge and kpackage that it works to open debs which are not 
in the archive and install them....

Any suggestions?

THX, Rainer
