Comment (by TormanToo):
I chose Option Two then I selected Ubuntu Xenial Xerus 16.04LTS. There is
a whole litany of issues.
1. I manually added the two lines to the /etc/apt/sources.list file.
2. Then I tried apt install apt-transport-https. I got these results:
E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission
denied)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you
root?
The writer forgot sudo. But tried that and got:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
apt-transport-https is already the newest version (1.2.27)
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
3. Next it says, to use Apt with Tor later replace https:// with tor://
and run apt install apt-transport-tor. Why doesn't it just say to do that
to begin with? There is no explanation.
apt install apt-transport-tor
E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission
denied)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you
root?
The writer forgot sudo again. Tried with it and got:
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following additional packages will be installed;
tor tor-geioipdb torsocks
Suggested packages:
mixmaster torbrowser-launcher socat tor-arm apparmor-utils obfs4proxy
The following NEW packages will be installed:
apt-transport-tor tor tor-geoipbd torsocks
0 upgraded, 4 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
E: The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/tor could not be found.
4. Attempting to add the two keys causes errors also.
gpg --recv A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89
gpg: no keyserver known (use opton --keyserver)
gpg: keyserver receive failed: bad URI
So I tried:
gpg --recv --keyserver A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89
I got the prompt back, so I guess something happened.
Next I tried:
gpg --export A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89 | sudo apt-key add -
gpg: can't open '/home/me/.gnupg/pubring.gpg'
gpg: WARNING: nothing exported
gpg: key export failted: file open error
gpg:no valid OpenPGP data found.
So then I tried:
sudo gpg --export A3C4F0F979CAA22CDBA8F512EE8CBC9E886DDD89 | sudo apt-key
add -
gpg: WARNING: nothing exported
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
5. "You can install it with the following commands:" Install what????
6. apt update:
Forgot sudo again.
sudo apt update
.....
.....
E: The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/tor could not be found.
.....
.....
Another forgotten sudo, but running:
sudo apt install tor deb.torproject.org-keyring
This got the normal responses, plus ended with:
E: The method driver /usr/lib/apt/methods/tor could not be found.
But after all this, Tor was still not showing up on any menu.
7. No one did any proof reading to the line, "deb.torproject.org is also
served through now also served via onion service:
http://sdscoq7snqtznauu.onion/";. It's also missing punctuation.
8. "To use the onion service..." What?????
Proof read and test!!!!
