Trying to install VPN and these are the instructions Mullvad is giving me. This is ridiculous. There must be a more simple way. I know how to follow the instructions but I have no idea what I’m doing here. Can’t I just download a file and install it? I’m on Ubuntu.
I would have guessed that Ubuntu would install it by default since its a very common way to get stuff from the internet (when in the terminal), but apparently not (the other option is
wgetwhich is most likely installed, but that uses a different way to get the stuff).You should be able to install curl with
sudo apt install curlMy fresh Debian install didn’t have that too and I thought it came with the installation
Debian doesn’t even come with sudo, git or curl by default. It’s kind of minimal on purpose.
It always throws me off on a fresh install when I can’t sudo
I didn’t know that any distribution comes with git preinstalled.
