But anyway. Instead of downloading the deb package, just use the terminal command to install programs:
Code:
sudo apt-get install name-of-program1 name-of-program2 name-of-program3
when typing in the name of a program, you can start with "libre" and then tap the tab key twice -- it will start offering potential completions. |
Thanks eschwartz. No luck, though.
