> Where does one put the files once they're downloaded?
Downloading the Debian package is often easiest. You can search for LogJam here, remembering that you're version is 'testing'. After downloading the file (to wherever, it doesn't really matter though you'll find I've put all your Debian packages in /root/debs/) you issue a command to install it:
# dpkg -i logjam_4.1.2-4_i386.deb
That unpacks the documentation and any executables into the appropriate locations. Sometimes a package may depend on something that isn't currently installed. That's when the APT HOWTO comes in handy, which you'll find listed among a bunch of other useful stuff.
