You should avoid third-party repositories if possible, especially if you are new to Debian. It's _very_ easy to end up with what is colloquially known as a FrankenDebian. https://wiki.debian.org/DontBreakDebian#Don.27t_make_a_FrankenDebian (I do recommend reading that whole page, not just the FrankenDebian section.) > Or, how do I get certain apps, such as: Bible Time, KeePass, VLC > Media Player, Audacity? All of those are shipped in the official Debian repository's "main" component, which means that you already have everything you need to install them. In a terminal, you can run: $ sudo apt-get install bibletime keepass2 vlc audacity though I strongly suggest installing KeepassXC in place of Keepass, in which case you should instead use: $ sudo apt-get install bibletime keepassxc vlc audacity Once installed they will be kept up to date just like any other package shipped by Debian. You can use https://packages.debian.org or `apt-cache search <keyword>` to find the package name corresponding to a piece of software you want to install; and `apt-cache show <packagename>` to see more details about a specific package. -- Michael Kjörling 🔗 https://michael.kjorling.se
