Just trying to install Git on a new Kubuntu instance, getting "please insert Kubuntu 19.10 into cdrom" [duplicate]

  • 772

I run install git and get the following error:

Please insert 'Kubuntu 19.10 Eoan Ermine - Release amd64 (20191017)' in the drive '/cdrom/' and press [Enter]

I cannot do anything after this, it just locks up and I have to exit.

What's the problem and how can I fix it?

kubuntu git

    You have to edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list and comment all CDrom entries (usually on the very beginning of the file).

    sudo -H gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

    Add # before each line you wish to comment. Then simply run:

    sudo apt update
sudo apt install git
