Question: I would like to know how to install, uninstall, verify deb packages on Debian. Can you explain me with an example?

Yes, unless you want to save it incase your internal HD erases (has happened to me.3 times). But yes, once installed you can go ahead and delete the.PKG file. Yes, you can safely delete the installers once the program is installed. No, programs don't use the installers to run. Sometimes the installer is used when you uninstall the program. I have a few programs on my computer that use the same executable (.exe) file to install and uninstall them. Install: Install a package making sure that all the dependencies are resolved. Install /path/to/file: Install the package which provides the given file, making sure that all dependencies are resolved: localinstall: Install a package from a local le, http, or ftp: reinstall: Reinstall the current version of a package: groupinstall. I would keep them just in case you need to reinstall those same applications in the future. You could move them to a external hard disk or burn them to a CD or DVD.
