Try: apt-cache show git dpkg -L git apt-cache search git This might have made you aware that you need package git-core, not package git. Also, I don't know about you, but when I type git, I get: $ git The program 'git' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install git-core bash: git: command not found > I tried to yum install some other stuff, I got the following: > > There was a problem importing one of the Python modules > required to run yum.

Well, you need package python-celementtree. It sounds like there's a bug in the yum package, as it should obviously have a dependency on this package, and doesn't. So: apt-get install python-celementtree And: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/yum/+filebug Anyway, why on Earth are you installing yum?

Hope this helps, however, in the future you probably ought to take support requests to ubuntu-users. -Forest -- Forest Bond http://www.alittletooquiet.net http://www.pytagsfs.org
