[clug] Re: Debian package

Hi there
O.K. The file I downloaded and wish to install is
"K9copy_1.1.0~Beta2-0ubuntu1_i386.deb" which now resides in my Desktop
folder and named as stated.
I have tried to install it (in kubuntu) from the Konsole program using the
command line "sudo apt-get install K9copy_1.1.0~Beta2-0ubuntu1_i386.deb".
The refusal I get is "The utility is not in the PATH" and the question is,
HOW do I get it into the PATH?! Hope this clarifies the query.
Regards Barry
