Is there a way to install using apt-get in Ubuntu rather than downloading the file from a desktop interface?
Hi,
Not at the moment, unfortunately.
You could wget the file and then use dpkg -i package.deb as an alternative (even if it's not as simple).

Appreciate the answer. I can work with that, thanks!
Just for reference:
Instead of using 'dpkg -i' and resolving dependencies manually, one can use
$ sudo apt install -f /path/to/package.deb
This will take care of the dependencies for you.
