I am trying to use install these libraries:

git clone http://people.csail.mit.edu/hubert/git/pyaudio.git
cd pyaudio
sudo python setup.py install
sudo apt-get installl libportaudio-dev
sudo apt-get install python-dev
sudo apt-get install libportaudio0 libportaudio2 libportaudiocpp0 portaudio19-dev
sudo pip3 install SpeechRecognition

But I do not have Ubuntu, runas doesn't work either I just get the help thing for runas, I can run the runas examples though, I was able to clone the pyaudio thing, and I was obviously able to use cd pyaudio, but for the setup.py, I removed sudo, and it did something, so I'm just hoping that was the right something, but for the rest it doesn't work. Also, if I do have to install Ubuntu and dual-boot it, does it share files with windows? (Please keep in mind I am very new to programming, so I would appreciate it if you could keep your terms simple)

Thanks in advance!

  • You can install Ubuntu using VMWare Workstation Player and indeed share files with windows. It requires some configuration that I don't know by heart, but I've used it regularly. Always had to look it up, though. I've used this with Ubuntu 14, but I think you should try Ubuntu 18, since it has a lot of improvements. (Note that this is NOT dual boot!) – Jacques de Hooge Sep 05 '18 at 18:04

    Ubuntu and Windows are different operating systems. Thus, they have different command languages. I suggest that you solve more than just the local problem by looking up Windows commands in general, starting with "Install Python on Windows". This will solve *many* more tasks for you than a single SO question. – Prune Sep 05 '18 at 18:07

    `apt-get` and these package names is specific to the Ubuntu/Debian-based packaging system and make no sense at all outside of it. The lack of `sudo` is literally the least of your problems. – tripleee Sep 05 '18 at 18:08

  1. To execute commands as an admin: Right click the shortcut to cmd.exe, and select 'Run as administrator'.

  2. There's no git unless you install gitbash or something similar

  3. There's no apt-get in Windows. Get the installers for python, and pip online, and install them. (pip is included with the later python versions)

  4. Use pip to fetch what else you need.

You just need to run a console as an administrator and type all commands without word "sudo". Also there is Chocolatey package manager for Windows which works the same as "apt-get" for Linux. However, all packages that you want to install are avaliable only for Linux.

  • No not "the Ubuntu package manager"... If you said Debian it would be more accurate. **All** distros based on Debian, that use apt, and .deb packages. Ubuntu is only one of the many distros based on Debian. – svin83 Sep 05 '18 at 18:18
