Install deb

[hspindel]

I want to install a .deb package on my proxmox host.

I found installation instructions that include this line:

dab exec dpkg -i /tmp/localpackage.deb

but I do not have a program named "deb" on my installation.

Is there a repository I can point to in order to obtain "deb"? I can't find it. Is this a bad idea?

The desired end result is to be able to install pinguy_builder. Alternatively, install eggs. I want to create a bootable ISO of my current install.

Hi,

you can just use apt to install the .deb package. Navigate to the directory where the .deb file is located and run the following command:

sudo apt install ./<your-file>
