I'm following these instructions to install git on my laptop:

http://git-scm.com/download/linux

When I do:

$ sudo apt-get install git-core

This is what my terinal shows:

state information... Done The following packages were automatically

installed and are no longer required: libasprintf0c2:i386

libcroco3:i386 libgettextpo0:i386 libgomp1:i386 libunistring0:i386

Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them. The following extra packages

How could I install git on Ubuntu 12.10? I can't even do it from the Ubuntu Software Center.

Thanks in advance!
