Hi,<br><br>There is no 'search' action in apt-get, how do I find out if a package is available or not?<br>Example: say I would like to install vi or vim, how do I find out if one or the other is available for apt-get?<br>
(No, doing 'apt-get install vi' sin't the right way to do it)<br><br>Yeah, I know, I reveal my newbie status with regards to Linux. My excuse is that on my Xubuntu laptop, I always use synaptic. :^)<br clear="all">
