Hi Zeno,

Finally I can declare success installing Koha on Linux Mint.  Please see 
attached screenshot. 

Creating the database was a bit of a challenge since the installer.pl kept 
timing out. I had to increase Timeout in the /etc/apache2/apache2.conf to 
 myusbpc-XPS-8700 koha_ofosualibrary # grep Timeout /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
# Timeout: The number of seconds before receives and sends time out.
Timeout 6000

Thanks for your help. 

regards,
--Daniel

the problem is that after 516
 >516  wget -O- http://debian.koha-community.org/koha/gpg.asc | sudo 
apt-key add -

you try to install koha-common
 >   517  sudo apt-get install koha-common

The correct sequence is:
wget -O- http://debian.koha-community.org/koha/gpg.asc | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install koha-common


I suggest you to read all web page 
https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_ubuntu_-_packages before to 
continue

Remeber that your version of Linux Mint uses MySQL 5.7 so check this 
paragraph:

https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_ubuntu_-_packages#Ubuntu_16.04_and_MySQL_5.7

Generaly speaking use Linux Mint only if you know it very well.
Koha is tested on Debian and Ubuntu, we probaly have very little 
experience on Linux Mint.

Bye
Zeno Tajoli
