sudo: apt-get: command not found

Question

When I run apt-get update as root user it's working well, but not working for apt-get install build-essential manpages-dev (showing apt-get command not found).

Solution

As normal user run sudo dpkg --configure -a, apt-get is working for root user.

What do you mean by running as root? using sudo or not?

result of which apt-get /usr/bin/apt-get

OP said apt-get install build-essential manpages-dev doesn't work. why do you think it will work with --simulate switch?

[karel]

In case he ranapt–get install (with an en dash between apt and get) or apt~get install, either of which would result in something like an apt~get command not found error message, I'm trying to trick him with the sneaky placebo --simulate option into copy/pasting the correct command instead.

Its working after install all the packages. Thanks Man.

Either way, the cat's out of the bag now.
