Installing Terminology Terminal Emulator

[oneself]

Hi,

I'm trying to install Terminology on Siduction.  The instructions I'm seeing around the net talk about using a ppa to install this package.  Is there any way to use a ppa with Siduction?
Is this package available in some other way?

[piper]

Is this for e17?

Using ppa (ubuntu) is not recommended in debian period as ubuntu is not binary compatible with debian and will eventually break your system doing a dist-upgrade.

Due to a 3 week holiday with limited computer access, I have a lot of catching up do to.

e17 in debian sid/experimental is not all that great (0.17.3-1)

I have not messed with e17 in about 2 months

Could look at this and compile from source/git

Thank you for your help,

Yes, this is e17.

Do I need to do something to make experimental available?

I'm getting the following:

Code Select Expand

$ sudo apt-get install e17 -t experimental -s
Reading package lists... Done
E: The value 'experimental' is invalid for APT::Default-Release as such a release is not available in the sources

Ok, first of all, if you didn't use visudo in terminal to open up the sudoers file for editing and manually edit it, sudo is useless as siduction out of the box doesn't have it enabled and for good reason.

Secondly, make sure you have

Code Select Expand

deb http://http.debian.net/debian/ experimental main contrib non-free in your sources. (/etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.list)

Since this is not ubuntu, we will then do

Code Select Expand

apt-get update && apt-get install e17 -t experimental -s
Terminology will not be included if I remember correctly doing it that way.

Best way to do e17 would be to go here

and to build in order <<< VERY IMPORTANT

Remember using the -s means

No action; performs a simulation of events that would occur but do not actually change the system.

To install don't use -s

You can download Terminology 0.3 here
