At no point in my email, nor in the link I provided, does it tell you
to run a command called "deb", so yes I do think you are missing
something obvious.

Can you explain why you feel you need to run a command called "deb"?

Have you tried following the instructions in the link I provided?

The link again is: http://backports.debian.org/Instructions/

Cheers,
Andy

When I try to run "deb" by itself as sudo or as root I get

" bash: deb: command not found"

Am I missing something obvious?

At no point on:

http://backports.debian.org/Instructions/

does it mention installing a [package called "deb". What
instructions are you referring to that tell you to install a package
called "deb"?

Jessie unable to install DEB

[Frank Pikelner]

I'm trying to install DEB so that I can install backports and get
letsencrypt going.

apt get install deb


tells me that "unable to locate package deb"?

Has something changed?
