Error on Ubuntu 18.04 #11

I think the -y of apt-get/apt should come after the build-dep.

sudo apt-get build-dep -y i3-wm
sudo apt build-dep -y i3-wm
sudo apt install -y

Also, how can I run this on a controlled environment avoiding to mess with my installed system installing all these dependencies? I'm not used to create deb packages. I was reading about pbuilder but I couldn't make this script work with it.

Hi,

I've just tested on a fresh 18.04 installation w/o any issues. (Perhaps another try with a new pull will do the trick for you.)

Regarding the controlled environment, e.g. chroots are good way to go...

Cheers, Gerardo

I had the same issue with Linux Mint 19.2 I changed from sudo apt -y build-dep i3-wm to sudo apt build-dep -y i3-wm and it worked, otherwise apt just showed me the list of commands.

(I also changed sudo apt -y install to sudo apt install -y)
