Need help installing libcec

Hi, I’m trying to setup the hdmi_cec component but it appears that I need to install libcec first, I’m trying to follow the available documentation on the libcec github page: https://github.com/Pulse-Eight/libcec/blob/master/docs/README.raspberrypi.md but I can’t run any apt-get command by ssh-ing into my hassio installation:

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Here:

I read that:

If you are using Hass.io then just move forward to the configuration as all requirements are already fulfilled.

Then you don’t need these steps.

Got this working with the HOST configuration (RPi host) but would love to try the Pulse Eight CEC adapter plugged directly into the Home Assistant system (not a Pi, running HASS OS in VM, USB passed through).

On HA CEC docs page I don’t see any mention of how to set up or reference the USB adapter - any info on that?
