    Cannot install Kompozer in Lubuntu 12.10

    I am having great difficulty installing Kompozer in Ubuntu 12.10. So far I do not see it in Synaptic, and it does not appear available when I type

    Code:
    sudo apt-get install kompozer
    When I attempt to use the terminal to install kompozer, I get the following:

    Code:
    E: Package 'kompozer' has no installation candidate
    I have downloaded it from

    http://http://www.kompozer.net/download.php

    but find no install or read me file. Help please. Thanks!

    If you had looked further down under the developmental version, you would have seen a Ubuntu repository link. A few clicks later, and here's your answer:
    Code:
    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:giuseppe-iuculano/ppa
    
    sudo apt-get update
    
    sudo apt-get install kompozer
    MSI FM2-A75MA-E35 Motherboard - AMD A4-6300 Richland 3.7GHz (Radeon HD 8370D) - G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB - Iomega KVM - MS Digital Media Pro Keyboard
    The cure to dependency hell: apt-get install apt-file - apt-file search file-from-error

    here is the solution:

    install kompozer-data first, all packages available .deb and sources

    Kompozer appears to ahve been removed from the repositories for 12.10

    I have just installed BlueGriffon from getdeb.net which appears to be a reasonable alternative.

    Bluegriffon works, but the repositories REALLY need to include a WYSIWYG HTML editor. which Bluefish is NOT .

    That site seems to have an unmaintained version?
    Why don't you install Seamonkey instead? That has "Kompozer" built-in.
    Seamonkey is available from http://www.seamonkey-project.org/ (but not from the repos.)
