If you just need to run Slicer (you don’t want to build it from source code) then you can follow [these steps](https://slicer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user_guide/getting_started.html#linux).

The Slicer version that you build from source should behave exactly the same as the pre-built version that you download. If you have questions about what options you have for cutting models (with or without capping) then please post it in a separate topic. Keep this topic on installing/building Slicer on Ubuntu 20.

If you still need to build from source, try running `sudo apt update` before the `sudo apt install ...` command. Also, double check that you have 20.04 since ubuntu 21.04 version appears to have changed the dependencies and we don’t have a recipe yet.
