On Kubuntu 6.06, is there a half-descent way to install a .deb file? The menu from konqueror is kinda sad in that it doesn't try to use apt-get (or anything else) to resolve dependencies, just says they aren't there. Fedora has a simple tool that uses yum (basically apt for rpm) to download the missing packages. Does Kubuntu have something like that, or will they ever? Thanks! -Steven</blockquote><div> sudo dpkg -i file.deb That's the easiest way of course. You might even be able to do sudo apt-get install file.deb to cure the deps it needs. </div> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">-- kubuntu-users mailing list <a href="mailto:kubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com"> kubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-users">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-users</a> </blockquote></div> -- With kind regards, Cliff Wade (Hawkwind) Registered Linux User #362532 Registered Kubuntu User #331 <a href="http://seerofsouls.com">http://seerofsouls.com</a> <a href="http://linuxfordummies.org">http://linuxfordummies.org</a> <a href="http://urpmi-addmedia.org">http://urpmi-addmedia.org</a> IRC Channels (<a href="http://irc.freenode.net">irc.freenode.net</a>): #LFD #Kubuntu #Ulteo
