Is it safe to manually download a package from this site and then install the .deb file using apt? Is there anything more secure about using apt to download the package?

I’ve done it before where a newer version of a program is available that hasn’t been backported, just need to watch the dependencys. Sometimes it works out fine, othertimes you need a second package or 2 to update, othertimes it’s time to upgrade to the latest bleeding edge release of the OS
