... you did a typo: you forgot the " " => space between /*add-apt-repository*/ and /*-y*/ as /*-y*/ is not part of the command but an additional parameter which tells your system to answer all questions with "yes".

Ok tried a couple of things Typed in the code found here and got the response command not found. It replied with sudo: add-apt-repository-y: command not found.

Ideas folks? Its probably something pretty simple for the pros, but I sure haven't been able to figure it out.

    Hi Mark,
    I'm on Mint 18.1 Cinnamon which is basically the same so to
    include newest darktable and calibration software Guillermo
    mentioned you go to a terminal and type:

    sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:pmjdebruijn/darktable-release
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install -y darktable

    for the latest darktable and

    sudo apt-get install -y argyll gnome-color-manager dispcalgui

    for the calibration tools.
    For scanning with my Coolscan 4000 film scanner I use Vuescan

    Hope that helps

    Hi Mark,

    Mint 18.2 is based on Ubuntu 16.04, this means the core
    components of the system are the same. In principle you should be
    able to use the same procedure described for Ubuntu to install
    any software on Mint, Darktable included. As Ubuntu is in turn
    base on Debian, you can also use instructions for the latter
    (many times you will find instructions for "Debian based" or
    ".deb based" distributions). Of course, there are some programs
    that have problems because some particularities of each
    distribution, but most of the time you'll be fine.

    For monitor calibration software you could go with the basic
    software included in Gnome, but I would recommend DisplayCal
    (very powerful, although a bit overwhelming on first use). For
    scanning I use XSane (a bit old but very complete). I'm not aware
    of any distribution that includes them by default, but both can
    be installed easily on Ubuntu-based distros.

    Regards,
    Guillermo

        Brand new to linux, and looking to add darktable.  I am
currently using Linux Mint 18.2 Cinnamon with the 64 bit os. It has gimp, but another lightroom replacement that is not
        non destructive. With my limited experience with linux, it
        might actually be easier to change the distribution.  The
        ideal distro would have Gimp, Darktable, some form of monitor
        calibration software, and some scanning software.

        Assuming that isn't available, I don't see the code necessary
        to type in the box for Linux Mint.  It may be there, but its
        highly possible I don't know that mint is a form of something
        else and to type that code.  Thank you for your patience for
        someone so new, and I appreciate the help.


        Mark
