Description
The ChimeraX daily build Ubuntu 20.04 install command listed on the download page is
sudo apt-get install ~/Downloads/ucsf-chimerax-daily_2022.01.20ubuntu20.04_amd64.deb
But the downloaded file does not have that name, and instead is downloaded as chimerax-daily.deb. Although in my case the download was named chimerax-daily(4).deb since I had previously downloaded daily builds.
The error message when trying the recommended command fails to mention the file does not exist making it confusing to figure out what went wrong

Yup. I want to fix that. The ucsf-chimerax-daily_2022.01.20ubuntu20.04_amd64.deb is the correct name, but we get to it via a CGI script and a symbolic link, so it's messy.
