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

In Ubuntu debugviewer is provided by os-autoinst package.

os-autoinst is:

The OS-autoinst project aims at providing a means to run fully automated tests. Especially to run tests of basic and low-level operating system components such as bootloader, kernel, installer and upgrade, which can not easily and safely be tested with other automated testing frameworks. However, it can just as well be used to test firefox and openoffice operation on top of a newly installed OS.

os-autoinst can be executed alone, but is currently designed to be executed together with openQA, the web user interface that allows one to run more than one os-autoinst instance at the same time.

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

sudo apt-get -y install os-autoinst

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

You can also use apt command to install os-autoinst.

sudo apt -y install os-autoinst

sudo aptitude install os-autoinst
