When you are root (sudo gainroot after installing gainroot) you can just install bash with apt-get. It is in the default repository (apt-get install bash), but it seems not be optified for some reason.

This has been discussed over and over again. The popular opinion seems to be that forcing users to install debs using dpkg will weed out the newbs clicking on trojans without impacting normal people. I agree, others don't.

Actually... If my skimming is accurate.. I swear in the latest PR1.1.1 you can.

There just isn't an option *in* app manager.. but if you use the File Manager to go open the Deb file it will install????

I thought I saw it in the PR1.1.1 thread...

Holy crap, that's not everything. I just went to packages.debian.org and clicking on a deb lets you open it with app manager. This is really dangerous.
