best way is using apt-get... try "apt-get --download-only install angry-birds*"
then browse to "cd /var/lib/apt/archive you should see all the deb files including it's dependencies.

Personally I just reset my desktop browser user agent to the Maemo one, and download the .deb file there.

yet another thread and i truly apologize.
I just reached the 5 max downloads of some of my apps from OVI store,
before I did that, I tried and follow a guide from Nokia Discussions on how to back-up all of the .install and/or .deb files and data. but i get stuck on the "copy to clipboard" from the /var/tmp folder using filebox.
for example, i will download Angry Birds Level Pack 1, the app manager opens and has the window with "continue" and "details" options. minimized the app manager but when i open filebox and go to /var/tmp folder, i see no apps, .install or .deb as seen on the illustrations of the guide!
What am I doing wrong? i followed all steps apples to apples but no luck here! im on PR 1.3!
Thanks
