Stupid noob question:
How does one install files through the console, making sure dependencies are installed as well?

Code:
dpkg -i <debfile>
It will bail if it can't resolve the dependencies. In that case,
Code:
apt-get install <package>
whatever is needed to fix the dependencies, and try dpkg again.

Thanks Bundyo. Thanks Benson.
I'm in love with this browser. It's way more grown-up than microb in terms of features, but it still needs some improvements. Flash and video support, mapped buttons, a background rendering fix, and some trivial things would make this browser nearly flawless.

There's already an optimized webkit build in the repos.

Also: Source please.

I just installed the dependencies in Red Pill mode

Webkit is not touched, it is just newer than the one in the repos.
EDIT: I totally missed it though. Do you know what optimizations are there in the repo version? I better not salvage through the huge source code to find them (148MB source, including all Layout tests).

I'll post a diff of midori changes.

Any progress on midori? I've been missing a bit the ability to use enter to accept url in the address field. Also, it would be cool if you could drop the search field and just widen the address field instead.

Bundyo, please try compiling the latest version of Midori. The v.19 in the Debian repos is very fast (faster on many sites than MicroB) and it seems much more stable than mentioned in comments above (Google Reader works well, ITT forums and Google Maps are quite fast), and I'd like to see if the most recent version (v.21) fixes the problems with Google Mail that I'm having (very slow rendering, Midori closes when trying to open a specific mail)...

If you use Stskeeps' Deblet Flash player plugin hack, you can even use Flash in Midori, and Youtube seems as fast as in MicroB.
