How do you install Google Chrome on Ubuntu?
I tried to install ffmpeg in trusty/Ubuntu 14.04 and got the following message:
$sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package ffmpeg is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'ffmpeg' has no installation candidate
Why isn't the package available?
I installed Sublime Text 2 on 12.04 as per this tutorial.
However I don't have adequate permissions when launching the program from the Unity launcher. For example I cannot install packages, or if I add a folder to the sidebar when I close Sublime and reopen, the folder is no longer listed. If I run sudo sublime in the terminal all changes remain after closing.
I've tried chown-ing the Sublime Text 2 folder in usr/lib
sudo chown -R mylogin:mylogin /usr/lib/"Sublime Text 2" but this seemed to have no effect.
I have downloaded tar.gz files. But I don't know how to install it. How do I install this kind of file?
After a recent update, ttf-mscorefonts-installer prompted me to accept its license agreement.

For some reason my terminal will not allow me to accept, or for some reason I am pressing the wrong hotkey... I've tried every letter on the keyboard and Enter among others... I'm sure there is a very simple and obvious solution to this.
I've also just tried to remove the package completely however the terminal states that due to the package not being correctly installed, I should reinstall the package before removing it. Very frustrating! Essentially, because I cannot successfully install this package, I can't really ever upgrade my system because I always have to end up terminating the terminal with the license agreement (thus the upgrade fails).
