When trying to install through package manager:

$ sudo apt-get install fonts-hack-ttf
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package fonts-hack-ttf

OS: Ubuntu 15.10, 64bit

Solved:

Add following to /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial main universe

Then

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install fonts-hack-ttf

Could you please add it to the readme?

Happy to. Thank you very much for reporting it. Do you happen to know what Ubuntu releases this applies to?

Well at least it worked on 15.10, sorry not sure about the other releases, but it should work

Let's poke the maintainer on Ubuntu to get more comprehensive information. Can you point to where you found this?

rahilwazir commented

I followed the steps from here xenial/all/fonts-hack-ttf and see the sidebar section for maintainer here
