Works for Debian an sons distros. With a bad internet connection sometime I download the updateable packages in another place, but I can't be there all time takes upgrade every packages... so I execute this for update only packages that are in Debian's apt cache.

I whipped this up and it converted back into nice human readable CSS :-) It could be nicer, but it does the job.
