For others, you can download the package to your core/packages directory. Then in Package Manager, click on "Add Package" and "Search Locally for Packages."
That will put the package in the PM grid.
That’s exactly what I did (for the first time) and it worked a treat, rather impressed (as indeed I am each and every day with MODx). One question though, foolish no doubt, but I’m good at those. If there’s an update will it still be picked up, I mean will, within the grid, will it show that there is an update available if a package has been installed locally rather than through the manager?
I don’t think so. That only happens with packages downloaded through package manager because the grid entry needs to have the URL of the repository it came from. That doesn’t happen when you search locally for packages.

... but you can right click the package, view details, and modify the provider to link it back to modx.

Cool. I didn’t know that.
