Today is Ubuntu's 19th birthday! Yes, you read that right: nine-freakin’-teenth. October 20, 2004 was when Ubuntu 4.10 arrived, codenamed 'Warty Warthog'
I installed GDebi from the store and used that. But the snap store use to let you use the store to install the local deb file. To be more user friendly, I hope they make this work again.
I have installed things with the CLI but like a GUI better.
I am a current Ubuntu user since around 2020. I left windows for good when they release windows 11.
Love the look of the new snap store in Minotaur, but want the ability to install local deb file back.
But… You still can? Even with the new Appstore, it supports snaps and debs.
Edit: Oh, you mean like double-click a deb file. I just use dpkg -i or apt install ./filename.deb.
Always good to know the CLI speak of GUIs you access. I don’t trust the software GUI for debs. dpkg -i!
