I keep getting this error when using the first step of the Installfest.



The line is:



sudo apt-get install autoconf automake bison build-essential curl git-core libapr1 libaprutil1 libc6-dev libltdl-dev libreadline6 libreadline6-dev libsqlite3-0 libsqlite3-dev libssl-dev libtool libxml2-dev libxslt-dev libxslt1-dev libyaml-dev ncurses-dev nodejs openssl sqlite3 zlib1g zlib1g-dev



I receive:



Reading package lists… Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information… Done
Note, selecting ‘git’ instead of ‘git-core’
Note, selecting ‘libreadline-dev’ instead of ‘libreadline6-dev’
Note, selecting ‘libxslt1-dev’ instead of ‘libxslt-dev’
Note, selecting ‘libncurses5-dev’ instead of ‘ncurses-dev’
Package libreadline6 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 ‘libreadline6’ has no installation candidate



After that message I entered:



dpkg --list|grep libreadline (at the suggestion of someone online)


I was returned:



ii libreadline7:amd64 7.0-3 amd64 GNU readline and history libraries, run-time libraries




The link to the site is below, the issue arises with the code in Step 1. "libreadline7" in the code a few lines above is actually highlighted in red if that helps. Thanks guys and gals!

  • @N0rbert My Ubuntu version is 18.04 LTS. There was no specification in the installfest manual as to which version to operate on, just simply Ubuntu.

I suggest to remove libreadline version from apt-get command and use universal one - libreadline-dev.



So the complete command would be



sudo apt-get install autoconf automake bison build-essential curl git-core 
libapr1 libaprutil1 libc6-dev libltdl-dev libreadline-dev libsqlite3-0
libsqlite3-dev libssl-dev libtool libxml2-dev libxslt-dev libxslt1-dev
libyaml-dev ncurses-dev nodejs openssl sqlite3 zlib1g zlib1g-dev


Then follow InstallFest guide.



But I recommend to use Ruby 2.4.4 on step 4 (as it is marked stable on official site).

  • @N0bert Since I already entered the in-question command yesterday, would I simply run the above code in it's entirety, or do I need to try and remove libreadline bit and then run the above code in full? Thanks again!
    – erik
    Jun 12 at 18:28










  • @erik You can run this full command. If some stuff is already installed, it will skip them. Also consider to use stable ruby 2.4.4 (not pre-EOL 2.3 as in guide).

  • @N0bert I started the beginning of Step 4 with your instructions. Once all was said and done, the following message was what was at the very bottom of the output: ` Install of ruby-2.4.4 - #complete Ruby was built without documentation, to build it run: rvm docs generate-ri` What do you think? Build or not?
