      Hello to all.
      New on Ubuntu, after using mac & windows.

      I have a issue with terminal: following the indications above i’ve tried to insert the command but the answer was “sudo-apt-repository: command not found”

      Could anyone give advice?
      Thanks a lot

        It should be sudo add-apt-repository PPA:SOMEPPA/PPA. If you still can’t add PPA, run:

        sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
