Using a wildcard pattern volmix_*.deb could be problematic if multiple .deb files exist in the directory. Consider providing a more specific example like sudo dpkg -i volmix_1.0.0_amd64.deb or instructing users to replace with the actual filename.
Suggested change
| sudo dpkg -i volmix_*.deb | |
| sudo apt-get install -f # Install any missing dependencies | |
| ``` | |
| sudo dpkg -i volmix_1.0.0_amd64.deb | |
| sudo apt-get install -f # Install any missing dependencies |
Replace volmix_1.0.0_amd64.deb with the actual filename you downloaded.
