He is speaking extremely clear English. I'm an American, and I think he is speaking much clearer then most of the people I meet with my accent.

on Debian there are 3 ways to install a package

1) dpkg -i yourprogram.deb

or

2) apt-get install yourprogram (this solves dependecies ---most windows installs don't have anything like this)

or

3) Open Synaptic click search, find your package, click the checkbox next to your program then click Apply and that's all. this also solves dependencies.

So it's even easier to install software on Debian! AND, none of the Debian packages contain malware unlike window$ installs.

Debian RULZ!!! :)

There are more ways. But essential everything uses dpkg.

[markoresko]

There is also aptitude with text interface.

@MCMXIX 2) Or use much better `aptitude` instead.
