External Email - Use Caution        

Good day,

I hope you're well.

I am experiencing difficulty installing the latest version of Freesurfer 7.4.1 on Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS. I downloaded the following .deb file from the Freesurfer webpage:

freesurfer_ubuntu22-7.4.1_amd64.deb

After downloading the file and navigating to the directory I stored it in, I tried to install it by running the following line in the terminal:

$ sudo apt install  ./freesurfer_ubuntu22-7.4.1_amd64.deb

Unfortunately, I keep getting an error that reads:

"N: Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file 'home/user/Documents/Praise/freesurfer_ubuntu22-7.4.1_amd64.deb' couldn't be accessed by user '_apt'.  - pkgAcquire: : Run (13:Permission denied)"

I am unsure what the problem is and would appreciate some help.

Thank you so much for your time and assistance. I look forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards,
Praise Matsekete
