    This worked for me, as well.

    Also… there’s a typo here:

    Download and Install pdfedit

    wget http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/pdfedit/pdfedit_0.4.5-2_amd64.deb
    sudo dpkg -i

    That last line should read:

    sudo dpkg -i pdfedit_0.4.5-2_amd64.deb

    Thanks to both of you for de-tangling this mess.
