Hi everyone
I read about the site 'PlayDeb.net' (which is a subsite from getdeb.net) where you can get games by clicking on a button to get it and then it would automatically install itself.
Not for me.. i've tried clicking almost every game but each time i click 'install this now', i get a new tab on my browser, then a setup loads 46 of 46 files, and then i get an error message: 'Could not find package '(game)'.'
So what'm I supposed to do? I'm a real ubuntu n00b so installing them manually is a real P.I.T.A. ...

Hello,
you need to setup the playdeb repository as described at http://www.playdeb.net/updates/#how_to_install

I did.
BUT still, I get the "Cannot find package" error. (eg. Blood Frontier)
Any help?
I feel that if the game is not actually available, it should NOT be advertised on the PlayDeb website. :(

I'm having the same issue. So far I have tried reinstalling the repository and it is still acting as if the respiratory is not there. the wired part is get deb is working just fine, just not playdeb. Any Ideas?

Click this link, and just let it open the file when its done downloading, it will automatically install playdeb.net and let you fully use the website.
