How to install .deb in /compat/ubuntu linuxulator

[Thiago Luiz Parolin]

I used linux-browser-installer to get netflix on my freebsd 13, and
everything works fine.
Now I need to access internet banking which only works if I install a
component on the system that is only available for windows/mac/linux. I
would like to use the .deb package from the linux version to install this
software, which is not available for freebsd and there is no access to the
source code.
How to proceed?

when i've done this in the past i created a linux environment based on
the instructions here:
https://wiki.freebsd.org/LinuxJails

after you get things setup you can chroot into this environment like so:
chroot /compat/ubuntu /bin/bash

then from there you can run apt-get, dpkg etc.  the wiki has some other
details so def read it closely.
