wget not working? - slerched - 05-30-2016

I am a 90% n00b when it comes to Linux.

I got my Pine64, I got a non-counterfeit SD card, and put the Debian install on it.

What I am trying to do now is get JRiver Media Center for ARM installed using these instructions:

http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=99370.0


Problem is, I open the terminal, I try to use wget and it says it doesn't recognize the command.

Not sure where to go from here.

Here's the command I am trying to use:

wget -q "http://dist.jriver.com/mediacenter@jriver.com.gpg.key" -O- | sudo apt-key add -



Any help is appreciated!

Usually, it is already there by default in most distribution.
If it not your case, simply do a "apt-get install wget" ...

It should probably be "sudo apt-get install wget" unless you are running as the root user, which isn't recommended practice.

For some reason, the default Pine64 Debian distro didn't have wget as a default.

Tried apt-get install wget and it worked a treat.

Thanks!
