Cannot use sudo in jenkins' `execute shell` build step

Question

I'm trying to use electron-installer-debian in Jenkins (version 2.346.2) dashboard. But it has a fakeroot dependency. Trying to install fakeroot using apt-get install fakeroot and error says 'permission denied'. If I use sudo apt-get install fakeroot, error says command: sudo : not found. Any ideas? Thanks

• M B: If you have direct access to the Jenkins machine, try installing it from there instead of from within Jenkins.
• mui mui: @MB i installed it on an EC2 instance of AWS. I can use sudo there, just not on the Jenkins execute shell build step. thanks btw
