Knoppix is a Debian derivative so I am asking here. I want to compile
svn versions of programs such as Scribus. Scribus has switched from
conventional ./configure, make, make install sequence to a cmake based
system. I can't seem to be able to download cmake using apt-get. Is it
cataloged under another name?

Have you tried the Knoppix repositories?

# KNOPPIX Sources
deb-src http://debian-knoppix.alioth.debian.org ./
# KNOPPIX Precompiled binaries
deb http://debian-knoppix.alioth.debian.org ./

Cheers

I entered the identical command and got nothing in return. So I assume
it is a repository problem with Knoppix. I'll ask on that side.

I assume I can use aptitude as an ordinary user, and not root.

Of course, but it will fail on any command that requires root
privileges. For simple searches apt-cache will be faster though
