Introduction
An approved monitoring command has been delivered as a local Debian package. It must be installed through the package manager so the system records its version and files.
The preceding guided lab practiced inspecting and installing a local .deb archive. This challenge repeats that one package workflow.
Install the Monitoring Package
Current Situation
/home/labex/project/software-inventory/labex-monitor_2.0_all.deb is supplied and labex-monitor is not installed.
Scope
- Install the supplied local package with APT.
- Keep the package archive in the workspace.
- Do not install or remove any unrelated package.
Your Goal
Leave labex-monitor version 2.0 installed and usable as a command.
Acceptance Criteria
- The package database reports
labex-monitorversion2.0as installed. - Running
labex-monitorprintsmonitor status: ready. - The supplied
.debarchive remains available.
Hints
How is a local package path distinguished from a repository name?
The guided lab passed a relative path beginning with ./ to apt install.
Summary
You inspected and installed one local Debian package, then checked its recorded version and command.
