I'm following a tutorial that says I need to run sudo apt-get update
and then install a whole bunch of packages. All of them work, except policykit
. It gives me Unable to locate package policykit
. Is there something I need to do to help ubuntu find it. I'm new to ubuntu so not sure how this works, or if I need to put the ubuntu installation CD for this to work or what.
