installing fenics binaries on ubuntu

Asked by Håkan Samuelsson

Hi! I've installed the latest version of ubuntu and tried to install fenics with the command "sudo apt-get install fenics" as suggested on the fenicsproject web site. I get the following message:

haakan@haakan-AMILO-Pro-V2045:~$ sudo apt-get install fenics
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package fenics

How do I do to install fenics?

Thanks in advance!

Håkan

Hi, Håkan.

Did you, "sudo apt-get update" first? It could just be that your repository
list needs updating, which is typical of a fresh install.
