StoicLoofah opened a new issue #1856: Unable to install CouchDB from apt in Ubuntu 18.04 URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/1856 ## Expected Behavior I followed the instructions at http://docs.couchdb.org/en/stable/install/unix.html#installation-using-the-apache-couchdb-convenience-binary-packages and verified that `deb https://apache.bintray.com/couchdb-deb bionic main` is in /etc/apt/sources.list and `[email protected]` is in my apt-key list. When I run `sudo apt install couchdb`, I expect it to install properly ## Current Behavior Here is what I'm currently seeing. ``` me@server:~$ sudo apt update Ign:1 https://apache.bintray.com/couchdb-deb bionic InRelease Get:2 https://apache.bintray.com/couchdb-deb bionic Release [1,840 B] Get:3 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security InRelease [83.2 kB] Hit:5 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic InRelease Get:6 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates InRelease [88.7 kB] Fetched 174 kB in 1s (222 kB/s) Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done 18 packages can be upgraded. Run 'apt list --upgradable' to see them. me@server:~$ sudo apt install couchdb Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package couchdb 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 'couchdb' has no installation candidate ``` ## Possible Solution I looked at #1314 so it appears that this should have been resolved awhile ago, so I'm not sure why I'm running into issues here. Neither `sudo apt clean` or `sudo apt autoclean` helped. I wouldn't be surprised if I made other mistakes in the process, but I'm not sure what else I can try to fix things. ## Your Environment I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 on a VPS that I recently updated from Ubuntu 14.04. I did not have couchdb installed previously.
