Hi folks,

I have apt-get enabled on the menu.  

What is the correct command line to get this package installed?

# dpkg-get
did not work.

TIA

B.R.

What do you mean enabled?
If it's in the mydsl menu then it's already installed, otherwise you have to download it from the mydsl extensions.

Is the dpkg that comes with DSL ready to use? I had this problem:

Code Sample
dsl@test:/tmp$ sudo dpkg -i mailx_1-3a8.1.2-0.20020411cvs-1_i386.deb
dpkg: /var/lib/dpkg/status: No such file or directory

I used GUI to install Apt
App --> Tools --> Enable Apt
