get file from other repo--how?
 

Using Dolphin to see what's available, but don't find cfdisk, which has
been recommended by man fdisk. How do I find this from some repo and
install it? Or is it possible that the GUI disk utility found on the
system actually _is_ cfdisk? (I don't know what it looks like, if it
has a GUI or is just a CLI routine.) Please advise. thanx--doug

You fire synaptic or aptitude or any package manager and search for
cfdisk; the package manager will find a way of telling you whether it's
already installed or not -- and how to install it if it's not.
