bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('
You should use single quotes '
or double quotes "
around the URL in this case (and in general):
wget 'http://www.flareget.com/files/flareget/debs/amd64/flareget_2.3-24_amd64(stable)_deb.tar.gz'
From now, you should use this method in general when you use a string which contain parentheses as argument in a command. That is because parentheses are used for grouping by the shell such that they are not communicated in any way to a command. So, the bash shell will give you a syntax error:
$ echo some (parentheses)
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('
$ echo 'some (parentheses)'
some (parentheses)
It's because of the brackets. You need to escape them like this:
wget http://www.flareget.com/files/flareget/debs/amd64/flareget_2.3-24_amd64\(stable\)_deb.tar.gz
Now it should work.
