I think you’re on an Ubuntu/Debian based distro, so it should be in the standard package repositories.

sudo apt-get install -y bleachbit

If you want to search the package repos for things use aptitude.

sudo apt-get install -y aptitude
aptitude search bleackbit
aptitude show bleachbit

apt-get is deprecated, should be using apt instead. Also, you can search using apt search. Add a -n to the command to search names only.

apt-get is not deprecated. It’s even used by some other tools in the background. Either one is fine.

Well there you go. I thought I read that it was deprecated, but the manpage says nothing about it. I've come to appreciate apt though, as it unifies all the binaries into one command (dpkg-deb, apt-get, apt-cache).
