Cheers.
Run evilvte, then type sudo leafpad /etc/apt/sources.list - modify the text (address to repository) then save & exit leafpad. While still in evilvte type sudo apt-get update, this will update your system to reflect the changes you made to your sources.list. Now when you sudo apt-get install "name of app here" your system will know if it exists and how/where to get/install it.

p.s. You should google "linux apt-get" to find a mountain of useful information that will help you get the best out of your device.
