Preparation

For installing miscelaneous tools like TeX, ImageMagick, etc., it is useful to install a graphical user interface called synaptic, which you can install as follows:

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install synaptic
$ sudo apt-get clean

Use Synaptic to Install/Uninstall Various Packages

Invoke the GUI, browse a list of available packages, select and install whatever packages you need.
