The package name is specified by the variable ${package_name}. For example, if you want to install the "apache2" package, you would replace ${package_name} with "apache2".
When you run the command, the system will check if the package is available in the online repositories configured on your machine and download it if it is available. It will also check for any dependencies required by the package and download them as well. Once everything is downloaded, it will install the package.
