title: How to download .deb files in ubuntu 14.04
body: <p>I wanted to download a binary image file, specifically <a href="http://launchpadlibrarian.net/162108105/mingw-w64_3.1.0-1_all.deb" rel="nofollow">http://launchpadlibrarian.net/162108105/mingw-w64_3.1.0-1_all.deb</a>. Currently, I can open it only using the Ubuntu software center. But that installs it to the system folder. But I want to download it to my own folder of choice and not to the system library.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a command line instruction that can achieve that?</p>
  
  <p>Please note that this particular deb file is very small, in kilobytes, but when it is downloaded using the Ubuntu software center, it will be in mega bytes. So, it is kind of an installer file. I want to download the binary images files that is pointed by the deb file.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
