You need to install the package "rootsh", and afterwards you can use
the command "sudo gainroot". The prompt will change and end in a "#".
Now you can use the command line for package installation. "apt-get
install shopper" will install shopper (well, at least it should).
This is basically what the package manager does anyway, but apt-get is
more verbose, so we can expect it to throw some nice error messages.
