hello
login as you or at least get to your home directory ;
cd
tar -tzvf get_iplayer-2.95.tar.gz
tar -xzvf get_iplayer-2.95.tar.gz
you should now have in your home directory a directory named: get_iplayer-2.95
cd ./get_iplayer-2.95
ls -ls
OK done that, now what? As I understand it that extracts the files
inside the archive. However, when I try to do a "sudo apt-get install
get_iplayer" it tells me there is no package! :-(
to discover where any other stray "get_iplayer/get-iplayer" may be do
sudo find / \( -iname "*get_iplayer*" -o -iname "*get-iplayer*" \) -ls
| tee find-stray-GiP
depending on your system, number of hard drives, number of mounted
filesystems, size of mounted filesystems
this may take a long time.
Thanks for that, it confirms there is no version installed on my system,
however if I try a "sudo apt-get install get-iplayer" after reading the
package list, it installs v2.83! I've done a Google search on "package
list" but can't find anything relevant. Am I right in saying it searches
the PPA? Is that because v2.83 was previously downloaded? In which case
how do I remove that link?
Sorry for being obtuse but I'm struggling with this one.
Thanks
