To install on Ubuntu 14.04, I followed installation steps on
the installation page for linux, and I received the following
error message:“E: Unable to locate package brave-browser”
In particular, I ran these:
-
sudo apt install apt-transport-https
-
curl -s https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/brave-core.asc | sudo apt-key --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/brave-browser-release.gpg add -
-
echo "deb [arch=amd64] <omitted because new forum users can only post at most 4 links>
-
sudo apt update
-
sudo apt install brave-browser
