It will begin verifying the installer (be patient, this will take a short while). Read the License Agreement (a copy can be accessed online at the website as well as in the program directories).
- Component selection. Note that the Vega Strike files are required to play Vega Strike, and that the music files are recommended for full immersion in the game.
- Destination folder selection

- Simply run the file and when a package manager opens review and click install
RPM (Red_Hat Package Manager .rpm)

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install vegastrike-data
- You can then add the PGKey :
wget http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:klaussfreire:debian/xUbuntu_13.04/Release.key
apt-key add - < Release.key
