Hi, Your phone already does not depend to Nokia servers, you can set up your own repository or add other %100 unofficial repositories. Its just a new-ok, not new for GNU/Linux community, but new for mobiles- method to get apps. If you know GNU/Linux distros, its the same method as they use. Its much more better to get apps from repos, not as individual packages, b/c you cannot get dependencies and updates if you install some package individually. Its not about with freedom or limitations, its about using a better way.

If you insist to use packages instead of repositories, you can still install them using XTerm. If you dont know how to use xterm, you should not install packages as you wish too.

And you can still install debian packages in the X terminal
