@LeandroStanger please read the question. Your answer is not relevant.

@Goldy_Fazbender please see this FAQ which explains why dpkg is not available:

@Goldy_Fazbender is using Endless OS 3.1.0
it is trying to install applications but Flathub has been enabled in Endless OS 3.2.5

=====================
= EndlessOS version =
=====================
NAME="Endless"
VERSION="3.1.0"

PRETTY_NAME="Endless 3.1.0"

I read it and it says that apt-get install and dpkg are installed. The error says that a file is missing

Update Endless OS to 3.4.6

They’re trying to use dpkg which is not supported on Endless OS.
