apt-Package unavailable? #348

Closed anreji closed 2 years ago

anreji commented 2 years ago

The docs suggest, that there should be packages available for Ubuntu (-based) distros, but I can't install under Pop!OS, neither via apt install ibus-typing-booster, nor via searching for "typing-booster" in the GUI app store (which this video suggests worked at some point as well). So either I'm doing something wrong (and if I do, help would be appreciated :P), or the documentation should be changed to reflect that the packages aren't available anymore.

Isn’t the right command 

apt-get install ibus-typing-booster

?

Maybe you need to add ubuntu repositories as described here: https://apt.pop-os.org/

Has to be an error on my part, because installing on my Kubuntu laptop works like a charm. FYI apt install essentially does the same as apt-get install (but there are articles that describe the difference in detail) and I think the repos you've linked to should come preinstalled with the OS (that's what the first sentence on the page says, anyway). All in all it seems to be some Pop!OS-specific quirk or I'm missing something, either way it's not your problem, so I think we can close :)
