Backtrack Applications for Your Ubuntu

This post is for those among us who use Ubuntu as they main operating system and would like to install their favourite forensic and/or information security tools.
First step is to create a .list file for the Backtrack repository:
sudo echo http://deb repo.offensive-security.com/dist/bt4 binary/ > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/backtrack.list
Then, we need to download and import the GPG key
wget http://repo.offensive-security.com/dist/bt4/binary/public-key && sudo apt-key add public-key
Finally, update the sources:
sudo apt-get update
Just keep in mind Backtrack is Backtrack and Ubuntu is Ubuntu. Don't try to make Backtrack out of Ubuntu.
