Installing .deb Packages on Ubuntu and Remove it

Sometimes it is more direct to install softwares on Ubuntu using .deb packages like in Windows using setup.exe. Here are some how-to commands.

(1) Installing:
                    sudo dpkg -i xxxxxxxxxxxx.deb

(2) Find out the list of all installed packages:
                    dpkg --list
                    dpkg --list | grep -i keywords

(3) Uninstalling:
With the pack name found using the commands above, we can remove the install.
                   sudo dpkg --remove xxxxxxxx
