Re: [orca-list] Different app centre in Ubuntu Mate



And, if you're interested in snaps, the command would be:


sudo snap search


to search for things, or:

sudo snap install...

to add packages.  if you'd prefer to browse and manage packages in the gui, I suggest installing synaptic.  I wonder if the packages:

gnome-software or ubuntu-software would work in Ubuntu Mate?  Finally, would you consider installing the default version of Ubuntu, for the entire GNOME experience? 



Cheers,



Dave  H.

I am not an Ubuntu user, but why not use the apt command, fully accessible in mate-terminal? 

For instance to search for packages I think that you can just type in mate-terminal:
apt search ...

To actually do administrative tasks like installing pacakages, you probably will need to type sudo first.

To know more, just type:
man apt

How do I get the different app centre or software for Ubuntu Mate 18.4?
The Software Bootique which comes with Ubuntu Mate is currently unusable with Orca because all you get when you tab through the controls is button as they are all unlabelled.
I tried sudo apt install software-centre and even tried spelling the word centre the Anlmerican way butbest I got was an error message about not being able to find a package or it mentioned an old package or something and nothing installed.
