Install Tree

[Ayshea]

Hi, I have been trying to install TREE using Ubuntu I am using this command: user@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install tree

This is what it comes back with.

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package tree

Any ideas please?

Hi Ayshea, welcome to the forums.

The package tree is available in the Universe repository. Do you have it enabled?

Do you have this repository enabled ?

Also post what version of Ubuntu you are using.

Enable the universe repository and try to install tree again.

If this fixes the problem for you then please mark this thread as solved using the thread tools under post #1.

Kind regards
