Ontotext GraphDB installation on linux debian (Jes

Question

I'm trying to install Ontotext GraphDB free on a debian jessie server. I've downloaded graphdb-free-8-1-1.deb file but when I'm typing the command

sudo deb -i graphdb-free-8-1-1.deb

as suggested in the quick start guide (http://graphdb.ontotext.com/documentation/free/quick-start-guide.html), I get the following message :

sudo: deb: command not found

It's seems that it has something to do with the /etc/sources.list file. Do I have to insert a line in this file ? how ?

Thanks for your help.

What you need to do to install a .deb file is (from the top of my head) this:

sudo dpkg -i /path/to/deb/file
sudo apt-get install -f
