I keep seeing places refer to the "partner" repository as a place I can get software, how can I enable this repository? Please specify how to do this graphically and via command line.
GUI Way:
Click on the ubuntu button, then search for "Software Sources" (or "Software & Updates" on Ubuntu 16.04+) and go to the "Other Software" tab.
Command Line Way:
- Open the sources.list file:
gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
(or with the command line editor of your choice,sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
would usenano
on the command line without a GUI) Add the partner repositories by removing the # in front of the following lines (
maverick
is the version of your Ubuntu installation, it may differ, so use the codename of the release you are using instead of 'maverick'. If you're not sure runlsb_release -c
to find out.)# deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu maverick partner
# deb-src http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu maverick partner
- Save and Close.
Resynchronize the package index files from their sources:
sudo apt-get update
