5 Package installation

Ubuntu uses APTarrow-up-right to manage packages. It automatically resolves and installs dependencies when a new package needs to be installed.

To install a package, e.g. "cowsay", first type $ sudo apt update :

Then, type$ sudo apt-get install cowsay. Type "Y" to confirm the installation.

For packages available on web in.deb, you can always download them and double-click to install.

Our TA team has already installed some necessary packages for you. You can install other packages you may need in the VM on your own.
