How To Fix envstore: command not found in Ubuntu / Debian / Kali Linux / Raspbian

In Ubuntu envstore is provided by envstore package.

envstore is:

envstore allows you to save environment variables into a separate store, list them, and reload them into the (other) shell again. It therefore provides a way to share them in cases where exporting to child processes is not feasible.

Included is envify, a shell script which loads the environment saved with envstore and then executes the command given to it.

A classic use case is MPD_HOST for clients of the Music Player Daemon. Commands to control the MPD would be wrapped with envify. If the MPD_HOST were then changed in envstore, it would automatically be used.

To fix this problem, we can install more using the command below.

sudo apt-get -y install envstore

This command might take some time to finish depending on your machine internet connection.

You can also use apt command to install envstore.

sudo apt -y install envstore

Or if you have aptitude installed you can use the following command.

sudo aptitude install envstore
