[FROG] Installing FRR on Ubuntu 18.04

Hi Alexis,

Tried that and seemingly made progress until the final command, where:
sudo apt update && sudo apt install frr frr-pythontools

gave this:
E: Malformed entry 1 in list file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/frr.list (Component)
E: The list of sources could not be read.

Which I presume is not supposed to happen. Am I missing something?

Best regards,
Ian Oakley

Hi,

If you’re just trying to install FRR (as a user, not a developer), I suggest you use the official APT repository: https://deb.frrouting.org.
