how to install texworks-0.4.4

[bekirs]

Well, I don't know if this will work, but I would try

sudo mkdir /usr/share/tex-common
sudo touch /usr/share/tex-common/05TeXMF.cnf
sudo apt-get install texworks

here is the output:

 sudo apt-get install texworks

texworks is already the newest version.
You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:
