When I run the instructions you provided (above) everthing goes smoothly untitl I run "git checkout devel" when I get the error jrkrideau@john-T510:~/leo-editor$ git checkout devel error: pathspec 'devel' did not match any file(s) known to git. jrkrideau@john-T510:~/leo-editor$ I ran "pip3 install --editable ~/leo-editor" anyway and it seemed to install Leo but it will not load. When I try jrkrideau@john-T510:~$ leo I get 'Command 'leo' not found, but can be installed with:' 'sudo apt install libwww-dict-leo-org-perl' jrkrideau@john-T510:~$ Any suggestions would be gratefully recieved.
