the
apt://b-sides

is a link you click on in firefox.. it will install the package. its a new feature in 9.10

its NOT a command you type in at the shell.

At the moment this will support only karmic so if you use the tutorial it will install all the required keys

Thank you so much
sudo apt-get install b-sides did the trick
Cheers

Can you publish the repository key and instructions for manually adding it? I am behind a fw that blocks access to the keyserver. Thanks.

When I did the last step, I got this response:

bash: apt://b-sides: no such file or directory

I’m a newbie. What’s wrong?
