[xubuntu-users] Xubuntu 16.04 install software, in particular input method

[Michele Mor]

Hi.
I think I a bug, but I would suggest that you try to look at the
terminal to install software.
I was used to open software centre before 16.04, but since they
changed it I decided to try the terminal and it's much easier than you
think.
I have read that some users still install synaptic.
