So I figured I'd look, and sure enough, it's not installed. I told it to do so, and while that seemed to go okay for a bit at the end of the process I get a box popped up saying "An error has occurred". In the box it says "W: Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file 'var/cache/apt/archives/partial/apt-transport-https_1.4.11_amd64.deb couldn't be accessed by user '_apt'.-pkgAcquire::run (13 Permission denied)
No idea what the problem is here...
