[SOLVED] Trying to install Playonlinux

Hi, im sure playonlinux used to install straight from synaptic.. i couldnt find it so I followed this instead:

https://packages.debian.org/jessie/all/ … x/download

I added something to my sources.list (last line):

# 

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8 _Jessie_ - Official Snapshot amd64 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20160706-02:22]/ jessie contrib main non-free

# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8 _Jessie_ - Official Snapshot amd64 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20160706-02:22]/ jessie contrib main non-free

deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie main non-free contrib
#deb-src http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie main non-free contrib

deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free
#deb-src http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free

# jessie-updates, previously known as 'volatile'
deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie-updates main contrib non-free
#deb-src http://httpredir.debian.org/debian jessie-updates main contrib non-free

deb ftp.nz.debian.org/debian jessie main contrib

Reboot
then in the terminal:

al@bl-aao522:~$ sudo apt-get install playonlinux
[sudo] password for al: 
Reading package lists... Done

al@bl-aao522:~$

Where am i going wrong?

Re: [SOLVED] Trying to install Playonlinux

The package is there (as your link proves).

Can we see the full output of:

apt-cache policy

I presume you have used `sudo apt update` before attempting to install?

Re: [SOLVED] Trying to install Playonlinux

Thanks, i didnt do the apt update but i did it now. Also I noticed i missed the ' http:// ' from the line in the sources.list so i corrected that.

It looks like it will work now. I didnt install it yet because it was 74mb, I will do that when im not using my tethered phone data.

Thanks hoas:D
