please, tel me if possible how to do |
you need to be root to use getinstall
sudo getinstall |
Welcome to Linux Questions.
If the packages are "rpm" packages, this command will do : first type 'su' + type the root password ...next : rpm -Uvh blender..... ( Use full package name ) Installing a package with a different suffix, please show the package name. And I have never seen a command by name "getinstall" .... |
"permition deeided" is an usual response - I assume that's a localized string, meaning something like 'permission denied' maybe.
AFAIK has Blender also tarballs for installation, that can be unpacked anywhere, so you don't need root privileges to run it - either run it by full pathname to the blender executable, or add the location to your $PATH Debian |
