1 Introduction

This page is dedicated to explaining how to install the foam-extend project OF Version 16ext.png in Debian. This instructions page might send you to the one for Ubuntu basically due to the close similarity between Ubuntu and Debian, since Ubuntu derives from Debian.

If you do not yet feel comfortable using Linux, then perhaps you better first read the page Working with the Shell and train a bit with the shell/terminal environments, so you can have a better perception of the steps shown below.


2 Copy-Paste steps

A few notes before you start copy-pasting:

  1. Lines that start with # don't have to be copy-pasted. They are just comments to let you know what's going on.
  2. One wrong character is enough for breaking this guide, so make sure you can read the characters properly or that the installed language system does not break the copied characters!
