I was going to install firefox to debian linux. I used ubuntu command
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/firefox-next
but i faced some errors it said
sudo apt-get-repository: command is not found.
So i cannot go forward to install firefox to my debian linux..
Could anyone tell me how to skip this problem and how to install firefox to debian
I suggest you check the Debian version what you're using. Debian by default comes with Iceweasel web browser instead of Firefox.
How to install firefox in Debian Jessie,
Add Mozilla Archive to APT Repositories
Open a terminal as root, and add a new file to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory.
$ touch /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian-mozilla.list
edit this file in editor, deb http://mozilla.debian.net/ jessie-backports firefox-release
Add the Mozilla Archive Key
This line adds mozilla.debian.net archive to your list of archives. Since the packages at mozilla.debian.net are signed, running apt-get update now will spit out a key not found the error. To add the key you need to download the pkg-mozilla-archive-keyring package, and install it. The package requires that debian-keying package be installed.
commands,
$ cd ~/
$ wget mozilla.debian.net/pkg-mozilla-archive-keyring_1.1_all.deb
$ dpkg -i pkg-mozilla-archive-keyring_1.1_all.deb
Install Firefox, update the archives and install Firefox:
commands,
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get install -t jessie-backports firefox
After doing all the above steps you installed the Firefox.
Installing Firefox browser on Debian wheezy
Edit your /etc/apt/sources.list file and add the following line.
deb http://packages.linuxmint.com debian import
Update your package list.
$ apt-get update
The above command will fetch mint package repository list. As a last step install firefox browser.
$ apt-get install firefox
Debian Jessie and later, another information if you use Jessie then it can be found in the software-properties-common package:
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
Whereas in Debian Wheezy and earlier, The apt-get program add-apt-repository is available in Debian.
That is located in the package: python-software-properties
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
Actually, added to that package in version 0.75. The current version in Debian Stable ('squeeze") is 0.60, so it doesn't have it. The version currently in Debian Testing ("wheezy") is 0.82.7.1debian1, so it's available there
I request you to go through this question, it will help you.

I'm trying to install the gitlab-ce package on a system running Ubuntu server 17.04. I followed the official installation instructions here.
First I ran:
sudo apt-get install curl openssh-server ca-certificates postfix
I already had all of those installed. Then I ran:
curl -sS https://packages.gitlab.com/install/repositories/gitlab/gitlab-ce/script.deb.sh | sudo bash
Which also worked fine. But when I try to run
sudo apt-get install gitlab-ce
I get the following error message:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package gitlab-ce
I know it's possible to install gitlab on Ubuntu server 17.04, since I had already done It on a previous installation. Unfortunately I installed the OS again from scratch and I can't remember how I had installed gitlab.
Thanks for any help in advance!
I gave up with the "full" automated script, as it doesn't appear to be working with 17.04... Anyway. I grabbed the latest package from https://packages.gitlab.com/gitlab/gitlab-ce/packages/ubuntu/xenial/gitlab-ce_9.3.0-ce.0_amd64.deb
curl -LJO https://packages.gitlab.com/gitlab/gitlab-ce/packages/ubuntu/xenial/gitlab-ce_9.3.0-ce.0_amd64.deb/download
Installed it with the package manager
sudo dpkg -i gitlab-ce_9.3.0-ce.0_amd64.deb
Then configured it with
sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
Then, point your web browser at your new gitlab install and you should be good to go...
Ubuntu 20.04.1
Incase anyone bumps back into this, while trying to gitlab on version 20.0.4 of ubuntu, life is much easier... and the instructions and automated script actually work. GitLab-CE installation instructions
on a fresh install of ubuntu: -
sudo apt install curl
curl -s https://packages.gitlab.com/install/repositories/gitlab/gitlab- ce/script.deb.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install gitlab-ce
done!
I was facing the same problem (Lubuntu 17.10), after searching the gitlab forums for 2 Hours, I found this thread.
So from what I have read: Gitlab-ce is not supported for zesty yet. Also the simple
sudo apt-get install gitlab
is a wrong prompt cause it installs a Ubuntu package created by a user named as "praveen" and It is not officially supported by Gitlab.
here is what I did To solve my problem:
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gitlab_gitlab-ce.list.save
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gitlab_gitlab-ce.list
replace "zesty" with "xenial" (These files are root access only)
sudo apt update
sudo apt-get install gitlab-ce
This worked for me.
I have spent my whole afternoon for solving this problem, I hope this solution works for you too.
Prost !
EDIT: corrected spelling
I had the same problem getting the install to run on 17.10. According to an issue on their site ( https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-runner/issues/2851 ), the artful packages are not being built.
I did the same this as #DevX, but just changed the parameters on their setup script.
Howler#GitLab:/tmp$ curl -LO https://packages.gitlab.com/install/repositories/gitlab/gitlab-ce/script.deb.sh
Howler#GitLab:/tmp$ sudo os=ubuntu dist=xenial bash ./script.deb.sh
Howler#GitLab:/tmp$ sudo apt-get install gitlab-ce
Im trying to install google's tensor flow API and i'm following their instructions on this link to no avail.
after typing the following command:
sudo apt-get install python-pip python-dev
i get:
sudo: apt-get: command not found
I'm new to Linux and i was told there are tow types, red-hat and a nameless parallel, which answers respectively to either wget or apt-get. I was also told i need to adjust the commands. (wget does works)
is this true? What is the accurate difference between wget and apt-get? how do i adjust the commands to my situation?
i'm working with:
SUSE Linux Enterprise server 11 (x86_64)
release 11
Suse Linux has not installed apt-get by default. you should go with zypper:
zypper install python-devel python-pip
apt-get is a packagemanagment system while wget is only good for filetransfer
apt-get is a package manager for Debian distros while SUSE Linux is equipped with zypper.
You can use:
zypper install python-devel python-pip
You can also compile python without using package manager like zypper. Wget is used to download things and is not a package manager. Thus when you will compile, you'll need the package. So you'll use wget.
I was just adding tmux plugins to my .tmux.conf file to find out that one of the plugins (tmux-copycat I think) requires tmux 1.9. When I start tmux I get the message `Error: Tmux version unsupported. Please install tmux version 1.9 or greater!".
So, what is the best way to upgrade tmux 1.8 to 1.9 on Ubuntu 14.04?
Update: due to new tmux version and changes in package repository, this answer is updated to show how to install tmux 2.0 (which is better, no reason to use 1.9 anymore).
Here are the steps to update "blank" ubuntu - version 14.04 only (see below for other ubuntu versions):
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y python-software-properties software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:pi-rho/dev
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y tmux=2.0-1~ppa1~t
now if you do tmux -V it should show tmux 2.0 which is a good version for tmux plugins
I verified the above steps on a new digitalocean droplet.
Basically, it's adding the pi-rho/dev repository, updating and then installing tmux from there.
If you have another ubuntu version you might want to install a different tmux version from the same repo. So:
ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) step 5: sudo apt-get install -y tmux=1.9a-1~ppa1~p (installs tmux 1.9, no package for tmux 2.0 yet)
ubuntu 13.10 (Saucy Salamander) step 5: sudo apt-get install -y tmux=1.9a-1~ppa1~s (installs tmux 1.9, no package for tmux 2.0 yet)
ubuntu 14.10 (Utopic Unicorn) step 5: sudo apt-get install -y tmux=2.0-1~ppa1~u
ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) step 5: sudo apt-get install -y tmux=2.0-1~ppa1~v
If you don't want to add a PPA, you can just build it from source. It's explained in the README on tmux's GitHub page:
To build tmux from a release tarball, do:
$ ./configure && make
$ sudo make install
You might need to install some extra packages to build it. On Ubuntu I needed to install these packages before it would successfully build:
exuberant-ctags
cmake
libevent-dev
libncurses5-dev
Another way to do #3 above (especially if you are using a corporate proxy that might break ppa).
sudo add-apt-repository -y http://ppa.launchpad.net/pi-rho/dev/ubuntu
If using a tool like Artifactory to act as a caching package proxy
sudo add-apt-repository -y http://my.artifactory.site/ppa.launchpad.net/pi-rho/dev/ubuntu
or
sudo add-apt-repository -y http://my.domain/artifactory/ppa.launchpad.net/pi-rho/dev/ubuntu
I am trying to install the linux-headers for my Kernel Version 3.4.61+ and Debian Version 7.1
I typed this Commands:
apt-get update
apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
On the last command I always get an Error:
E: Unable to locate package linux-headers-3.4.61
E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'linux-headers-3.4.61'
btw: It´s all based on a Cubietruck/Cubieboard3
Here's what you may need to do
sudo apt-get update # This will update the repositories list
sudo apt-get upgrade # This will update all the necessary packages on your system
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade # This will add/remove any needed packages
reboot # You may need this since sometimes after a upgrade/dist-upgrade, there are some left over entries that get fixed after a reboot
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) # This should work now
You could search first, then choose the closest one.
For example, on my system:
$ apt-cache search linux-headers
linux-headers-3.2.0-4-all - All header files for Linux 3.2 (meta-package)
linux-headers-3.2.0-4-all-amd64 - All header files for Linux 3.2 (meta-package)
linux-headers-3.2.0-4-amd64 - Header files for Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64
So I can install any one of these three.
Heres my experience with this problem:
I installed Kali Linux from a live memory stick. Whilst installing I didn't have an internet connection.
This meant that my sources.list file was set to "Default Off-line Install Values". This meant that when installing I was limited to just the packages and data from the memory stick I Initially installed from.
To fix this, you need to change your sources.list (called switching branches):
Open terminal:
nano /etc/apt/sources.list
This opens the sources file
Now at the top of the file paste in the following two lines:
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib
deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali-rolling main non-free contrib
Press CTRL + X then Press Y and Enter to save the file.
Now you can type the following commands to update Kali:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
reboot
And finally, you should now be able to...
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
This is just my unique experience with this error stemming from an offline install.
I hope this helps someone else out there.
Reference
Check the Source.list file to contain the repository entries.
You can find them at - https://docs.kali.org/general-use/kali-linux-sources-list-repositories.
After editing the file, save it and run "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade". Now run "apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)"
For latest version of kali linux do the following to install vbox guest additions.
Update the packages
# apt-get update
Command to install virtualbox guest additions
# apt-get install -y virtualbox-guest-x11
Reboot
# reboot
Enjoy!
Now you have successfully installed guest OS additions and you can verify that by toggling full-screen it should now stretch to your screen resolution.
Source: Kali Linux Official (Docs - VirtualBox guest additions)
Just Use:
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic
if you are on a Desktop installation. The apt-get will solve the dependencies and install the correct version of kernel headers.
hello i have faced problem with libgcrypt and i am sure is is installed with newst version thats happen when i try to install libssh2
[root#loft1034 libssh2-1.1]#./configure
configure: error: cannot find OpenSSL or Libgcrypt,

/usr/lib64/libgcrypt.so.11.5.2
[root#loft1034 libssh2-1.1]#
i try to using prefix path with no benefit please help me?
Install the package with the header files.
CentOS 6/7, perhaps Fedora:
sudo yum install -y libgcrypt-devel
Debian/Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install -y libgcrypt11-dev
Try this (it works for Ubuntu 15.10 64 bit)
wget ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libg/libgcrypt11/libgcrypt11_1.5.0-5+deb7u3_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i libgcrypt11_1.5.0-5+deb7u3_amd64.deb
If you are using centOS install libcrypt-devel:
sudo yum install libgcrypt-devel
For ubuntu(works for me)
Try to download the package first, download links, note choose the right architecture.
there take amd64 as an example.first we get the link address http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libg/libgcrypt20/libgcrypt11-dev_1.5.4-3+really1.8.1-4ubuntu1.3_amd64.deb
On ubuntu, we download the package
wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libg/libgcrypt20/libgcrypt11-dev_1.5.4-3+really1.8.1-4ubuntu1.3_amd64.deb
then install it
sudo dpkg -i libgcrypt11-dev_1.5.4-3+really1.8.1-4ubuntu1.3_amd64.deb
Maybe there are other dependencies need to install.
you can choose to install it one by one, or follow the tips
sudo apt --fix-broken install
