    v1 v2  
    1010A good first step would be to check if the package is available within [http://debian.org/ debian], the operating system we use at May First/People Link.  You can do this from the command line on your shared server with:
    1111{{{
    12 apt-cache search ffmpeg
     12apt-cache search fubar
    1313}}}
    1414This just checks to see if the package is ''available'' within the debian system.  If it is, then it's almost always the case that you should ask to have it installed system-wide on your server by [/newticket opening a ticket].  Remember to explain in your ticket ''why'' you want the software installed.
