Installing local deb file

[Jonathan McLoughlin]

Dependencys will have to be resolved!
Take note of all the dependencys that your local file has and try to 
install them from the ubuntu repository sudo apt-get install 
<dependencies>, when doing this take special note of dependency 
versions. Once dependencies are meet you may install your local deb file 
the way you mentioned sudo apt-get install whatever.deb
