I tried installing the libdouble-conversion-dev package using sudo apt-get install libdouble-conversion-dev but failed with the following output:
Package libdouble-conversion-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'libdouble-conversion-dev' has no installation candidate
I have also tried running sudo apt-get update beforehand and got the same results, as well as installing from the debian file from https://packages.debian.org/buster/amd64/libdouble-conversion-dev/download but nothing seemed to have changed.
You can manually install a Debian package on a compatible Ubuntu host with sudo dpkg -i $name_of_package_file.

In preparation for supporting a Python 2 legacy application I just installed Ubuntu 18.04.5, which includes Python 3 but not Python 2. Pretty much every Python 2 install tutorial website shows the following command for installing Python 2:
sudo apt-get install python2
Upon which I get:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package python2
Some sites list these commands first so I tried these as well:
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository universe
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python2
This gives the same results as above.
I setup Ubuntu 20.04 on a different computer and installed Python 2 about a month ago and I could swear I used the same commands and at that time it worked. I also remember something about Python 2 being decommissioned at the end of January 2021 (which just passed).
Was the Python 2 pip package taken down? Is there some way I can verify this? If so, is there some special curl command that can still download Python 2 or a website I can download it from?
After searching the Ubuntu packages, it seems that for some odd reason for Ubuntu 20.04 the name of the Python 2 package is python2 but for Ubuntu 18.04 there is no package named python2. It seems that for Ubuntu 18.04 by running:
sudo apt-get install python-pip
This installs both pip for Python 2 and Python 2 itself, so this seems to be the best option
I am trying to install Ezra-project on Ubuntu 20.04. When I run the install it fails and says:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of ezra-project:
ezra-project depends on libicu66; however:
Package libicu66 is not installed.
I tried installing libicu66 with
sudo apt install libicu66
But it says
Package libicu66 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'libicu66' has no installation candidate
Is libicu66 available for Ubuntu 20.04? If so, please could someone direct me to where to download it from?
I faced same problem when i tried to install couchdb.
The solution i found was installing it manually.
Go to https://www.ubuntuupdates.org/package/core/focal/main/base/libicu66 and download the proper version for your CPU architecture.
It could be done with wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/i/icu/libicu66_66.1-2ubuntu2_[YOUR_CPU_ARCHITECTURE].deb
Then in the same folder use sudo apt update && sudo dpkg -i libicu66_66.1-2ubuntu2_[YOUR_CPU_ARCHITECTURE].deb
I am trying to install python-ldap package using pip. I am getting the below error while executing pip install python-ldap. I tried installing the package corresponding to ubuntu 17.10 ( Artful ) as per this question but no luck yet. What package am I missing ?
Solution in the above stack overflow question is to install
sudo apt-get install libsasl2-dev python-dev libldap2-dev libssl-dev
But in 17.10 I could not see libsasl2-dev & libldap2-dev instead I could see packages libsasl-2-2& libldap-2.4-2. I installed those along with phthon-dev & libssl-dev. But still I am getting the below error.
Seems I am missing some package installation which has lber.h file in it.
Error I am getting :
In file included from Modules/LDAPObject.c:8:0:
Modules/constants.h:7:10: fatal error: lber.h: No such file or directory
#include "lber.h"
^~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
error: command 'x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc' failed with exit status 1
Python version - 3.6.3
Pip version - 19.1.1
I have figured out the root cause myself. Issue seems to be the dev packages itself.
Need to install libsasl2-dev, libldap2-dev & libssl-dev. I was not able to see these packages in 17.10 as the main repository mirror urls are changed as the version is archived as per the below question.
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1141501/i-cant-run-sudo-apt-get-update-in-ubuntu-17-10
I have changed to 18.04 and after installing the above packages everything works great.
This worked for me:
apt-get update -y && apt-get install -y python3-dev libldap2-dev libsasl2-dev ldap-utils tox lcov valgrind
I am building the customized source code of firefox. When I am going to build the firefox, I am given following error regading the "no pango package error". How can I solve this error.
If you are using Ubuntu 18.04 or similar, try:
sudo aptitude install libpango1.0-dev
In ubuntu 16.04
sudo apt install libpango1.0-dev
from
sudo yum install 'pkgconfig(pango)'
Should install the necessary packages.
I am trying to install ContextBroker in Centos7:
sudo rpm -i contextBroker-0.14.1-1.X86_64.rpm
But I am getting the next error:
error: Failed dependencies:
libboost_filesystem-mt.so.5()(64bit) is needed by contextBroker-0.14.1-1.x86_64
libboost_system-mt.so.5()(64bit) is needed by contextBroker-0.14.1-1.x86_64
libboost_thread.so.5()(64bit) is needed by contextBroker-0.14.1-1.x86_64
Up to this point I thought that the solution was clear, lets install:
sudo yum install boost boost-devel boost-doc
But it was not functioning and Centos7 was giving me the same error.
Then I though that maybe it was because the static versión was needed as the error is related to libboost and not directly boost ( I do not know if this was a good assumption),but I tried and it was not functioning and Centos7 was giving me the same error.
The thing is that I am able to find those files, but I dont know how to give dependencies to rpm and in case is not possible I tried to install the following packages:
sudo rpm -i boost-1.53.0-18.el7.x86_64.rpm
However to be able to install the following two packages, I had to install boost-devel using yum, because when I tried to install the package boost-devel.1.53.0-18.el7.x86_64.rpm I was missing a lot of dependencies.
sudo rpm -i boost-static-1.53.0-18.el7.i686.rpm
(Edit. The extension .i686 is for 32 bits, so this package was not needed.)
sudo rpm -i boost-static-1.53.0-18.el7.x86_64.rpm
The result was the same.. so I have two questions:
1.Can someone tell me the name or pass me the link of the boost rpm that I am missing and that is not allowing me to install directly boost-devel from the rpm.
2.Which one is the correct order to install all the boost rpm packages in Centos7?
Thanks!!
Edit:
I found that the extension of the files that are in my system end with .so.1.53.0, and the dependencies that the rpm is asking for end with .so.5()(64bit). Can it be that the rpm is looking for a specific version of the dependencies?
here is what I did on centos 6.5 x64
get the rpm package
wget --no-check-certificate https://forge.fi-ware.org/frs/download.php/1502/contextBroker-0.15.0-1.x86_64.rpm
then because of the dependencies required (listed in https://forge.fi-ware.org/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/fiware/index.php/Publish/Subscribe_Broker_-_Orion_Context_Broker_-_Installation_and_Administration_Guide#Requirements )
we need to install EPEL (see http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL#How_can_I_use_these_extra_packages.3F ) by running
yum install epel-release
then install each dependency:
yum install boost-filesystem
yum install boost-thread
yum install libmicrohttpd
yum install logrotate
then
rpm -i contextBroker-0.15.0-1.x86_64.rpm
it worked for me.
Hope this help
Finally I have been able to resolve the problem with the dependencies.
ContextBroker is depending on the old packages of boost for Centos 6, so to be able to install ContextBroker in Centos7 you have to remove the newest versions of boost from the system (to me this solution was not a problem, because in my case I am using a VM just to be able to exclusively use contextBroker but this can be a real problem with the dependencies of other packages that are using the corresponding version of boost for Centos7):
sudo yum remove boost boost-devel boost-system boost-filesystem boost-thread
Later it is needed the downloading and installation of the old packages:
sudo rpm -Uvh boost-thread-1.41.0-25.el6.x86_64.rpm
sudo rpm -Uvh boost-system-1.41.0-25.el6.x86_64.rpm
sudo rpm -Uvh boost-filesystem-1.41.0-25.el6.x86_64.rpm
And then is possible to install ContextBroker:
sudo rpm -i context-0.15.0-1.x86_64.rpm
I hope this helps to the new contextBroker's users!
