Hello Peter,
I am just starting with Linux on the chromebook and found your post quite useful.

What is not really clear to me is how you install command-line apps.

I started with Google: Set up Linux (Beta) on the Chromebook

This part worked fine

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade`
sudo apt-get install default-jdk 

But when I started to install other apps, I found that everything was outdated (gradle) or not available (fd-find, ripgrep, ...).

Any insights on this?
