How can I install libdouble-conversion-dev on Ubuntu 18.04?

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

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.

How do I install lubicu66 on Ubuntu 20.04?

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

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

How am I supposed to solved it.
I only get it to work using master branch of VLC
https://launchpad.net/~videolan/+archive/ubuntu/master-daily
first add the repository
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:videolan/master-daily
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install vlc
The vlc-nox package installs vlc
To remove, use:
sudo apt-get purge vlc-nox
Next, to reinstall vlc, use:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install vlc
% sudo snap install vlc
VLC for Debian and many other Linux distributions is also packaged using snap packages. This allows us to distribute latest and greatest VLC versions directly to end users, with security and critical bug fixes, full codec and optical media support.
To install via snap:

I feel like there is something I'm missing here but after a day of messing around with it I still can't figure it out. Any help/insight would be appreciated.
Thanks G10DRAS for providing the link.
This solution worked for me. First, I downloaded these files
sudo wget https://storage.googleapis.com/google-code-archive-downloads/v2/code.google.com/phonetisaurus/is2013-conversion.tgz
sudo wget http://www.openfst.org/twiki/pub/FST/FstDownload/openfst-1.3.4.tar.gz
Then, untared the files
tar -xvf is2013-conversion.tgz
tar -xvf openfst-1.3.4.tar.gz
Finally, following next steps at: http://jasperproject.github.io/documentation/installation
