Install the Latest Version of Elisa Media Center for Ubuntu

Elisa is an open source media center designed to be simple for people not particularly familiar with computers. To add Elisa or elisa-extra we need to…

1st: Add Elisa to our software sources, go to System -> Administrator -> Software Sources then click the Third Party tab. Click add and enter:

deb http://elisa.fluendo.com/packages gutsy main (gutsy is the version of ubuntu I am on, make sure you put what version you are using)

2nd: We need to add the key, from a terminal enter:

wget http://elisa.fluendo.com/packages/philn.asc -O – (<- that is an o not a zero)

sudo apt-get add-

3rd: Then you can install via synaptic or in terminal (sudo apt-get install elisa-extra)

    Before posting instructions, you should see that they work – not just invent them!

    sudo apt-get elisa-extra won’t work. ‘elisa-extra’ is not going to be understood by apt-get. Perhaps you should tell apt-get that you wish to ‘install’ elisa-extra.

    Similarly, the wget command doesn’t seem to get a key, it simply complains that IT CAN’T FIND THAT PACKAGE

    How can you help stupid people if you don’t know how to do it yourself?
