Installing Waterfox?

[Member Senex]

I had been using MX Linux for about a year, but the process of installing Waterfox does not seem to be the same on AntiX. I’m using AntiX as LiveCD, and yes, I’m aware Waterfox will only be installed for that session. I may eventually install AntiX on my secondary HDD (if I can get as comfortable with it as I was with MX Linux), but until then, the Live CD is good enough to practice on. Can anyone provide a step-by-step on how to install Waterfox? GUI only please. Thanks for any assistance.

apt-get update
apt-get install waterfox

Note that waterfox is 64 bit only.

antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.

You did ask for GUI only
Right click>Applications>System Tools>Synaptic Package Manager <Open & password After opening SPM click reload repo’s will update > then click search type = waterfox right click on box make for installation > click on Apply then apply again.

Learn to use the terminal so much easier..

waterfox is in antiX repo (thanks to the MX packagers)

Sorry, I missed the gui bit.

There might be an issue with waterfox on antiX-17 though.
