Allow deb packages to be installed #9

Hi,

wkhtmltopdf is available as deb package instead of apt repository.

Would be great to have a way to specify packages like this:

libpq-dev
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/wkhtmltopdf/0.12.1/wkhtmltox-0.12.1_linux-precise-amd64.deb

Or maybe another file? Wdyt?

Seems fine to me. Want to make a pull request?

Surely!

Do you think we should use another file or Aptfile is fine?

In the last case, what would be the "criteria" to decide the line is a deb package ou apt package? I thought in just check if the line ends with ".deb" to check that.
