Answer 1

Try the following one

$ sudo apt-get install finger 
You dont require sudo if loggedin as superuser i.e. 'apt-get install finger' will suffice.

In case above command does not work then try the following one by one

$ sudo apt-add-repository universe
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install finger
