That's what I do for Ubuntu Karmic anyway; I'm far too impatient to wait for the repos to update.
Sure, that would work. I do that on my main system, which is Slackware Linux.
But I prefer using the package system on Debian-derived distros. I don't want to handle the dependencies on my own if I don't have to.
I may end up getting the package sources, and see if I can add the Python files for the nook manually, as a patch, and create a .deb myself to use for the install.
