Cherokee removed from Debian
I found this thread on the Cherokee mailing list which would seem to indicate that the package has been dropped from Debian all together.
Cherokee was removed from Testing back in November, and has been
removed from Unstable yesterday. But you can introduce it as a new
package without changing the packaging. If you become a DM, I can
sponsor you the first upload, and afterwards you can take care of it
by yourself.
missing add-apt-repository
You're missing the application add-apt-repository
. You can install it by installing this package:
$ sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
Missing apps
On Debian and Ubuntu you can determine what package to install when you encounter a missing command line tool.
$ dpkg --search add-apt-repository
software-properties-common: /usr/bin/add-apt-repository
software-properties-common: /usr/share/man/man1/add-apt-repository.1.gz
You can also list the contents of a package by using dpkg-query
:
$ dpkg-query -L software-properties-common | grep add-
/usr/share/man/man1/add-apt-repository.1.gz
/usr/bin/add-apt-repository
/usr/share/man/man1/apt-add-repository.1.gz
/usr/bin/apt-add-repository
apt-file
You can also install this tool, apt-file
to search for files and find out what package they're included in:
$ sudo apt-get install apt-file
The first time you run it:
$ apt-file search add-apt-repository
E: The cache is empty. You need to run 'apt-file update' first.
So update it:
$ sudo apt-file update
Now with the cache inplace:
$ apt-file search add-apt-repository
software-properties-common: /usr/bin/add-apt-repository
software-properties-common: /usr/share/man/man1/add-apt-repository.1.gz

Although
apt-get update
might seem to help you, I recommend strongly against using pip installed from the Wheeze repository withapt-get install python-pip
:pip
is at version 1.1 while the current version is > 9.0pip
has known security problems when used to download packagespython-pip
installed viaapt-get
pulls in some perl modules for whatever reasonUnless you are running python2.4 or so that is still supported by pip 1.1 (and which you should not use anyway) you should follow the installation instructions on the pip documentation page to securely download
pip
(don't use the insecurepip install --upgrade pip
with the 1.1 version, and certainly don't install any packages withsudo pip ...
with that version)If you already have made the mistake of installing pip version 1.1, immediately do:
After that:
(for any of the python versions you have installed).
Python2 versions starting with 2.7.9 and Python3 version starting with 3.4 have pip included by default.
