Reg:support files

[vinay kumar-13]

Hi

I'm Vinay. I installed ubuntu from a live cd and it looked good. But when i tried to install other applications like wine,vlc,.... i'm getting some errors that support files are not present. So, Can any one provide me the list of the supportive files for installing any type of applications in ubuntu.!

Regards
Vinay

HI Vinay,
You get those errors because of ubuntu.Try to install them using package
manager which is available in ubuntu.
That will take care of all the dependencies  while installing the software.
Try using Synaptic package manager.

Hi Vinay,

Use apt [Advanced Packaging tool] to install all your additional software
packages.


installation:
$ sudo apt-get install <package>

removal:
$sudo apt-get remove <package>

for searching package
$apt-cache search <package>

Please run apt-get update frequently.



Peace,
