I imagine that can be painful.

I usually don't even bother doing that through Unity: just open a tty with crtl+alt+f6, install all the packages from there ;)

Even doing this is incredibly slow and laggy with Unity. Once you're in the shell, it's better, but switching is just super slow and painful.
