shortcasper@shortcasper-laptop:/usr/local/download$ sudo apt-get install vim Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package vim 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 vim has no installation candidate shortcasper@shortcasper-laptop:/usr/local/download$ |
Is Ubuntu 8.10 still supported?
Usually an obsolete package is tagged that because it's no longer needed, by your system. Meaning that your sources.list may have changed. That is only my opinion though. This also means package name may have change Quote:
