Install Xfce Theme Manager Debian 8
Dear Debian folks, I have been trying to install xfce theme manager (I am running Debian Jessie on an AMD 64 box). I found a web site where there appeared to be some packages that may may not work in debian (perhaps better used in e.g. I downloaded the ones that seemed relevant and tried using aptitude to install them but it did not work. I also noticed another web site On this website, which was dealing with e.g. Xubuntu not debian the commands recommended to install it were: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rebuntu16/other-stuff sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install xfce-theme-manager I think the reason it may not be working in my case is that I don't know what the correct equivalent of sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rebuntu16/other-stuff would be for a debian user. If it isn't possible to make the repository work in debian at present I could try installing from a tar file instead.
Maybe that is what I should be doing here. Please excuse my ignorance here. Suggestions on this are most welcome.
Apt-get install xfce4-goodies. In some Debian 8 minimal version installations. If you don't use a login manager but start Xfce from console.
