Ubuntu 10.10 - Package 'python-json' has no installation candidate

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Hi. Installing the package dependencies and got the following error;


sudo apt-get install python-json

Package python-json 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 'python-json' has no installation candidate

If I install python-cjson and change 'python-json' to 'python-cjson' in files below, will it work?

~/knipknap-Gelatin-273d92e$ grep -irn python-json *

debian/control:13:Depends: ${python:Depends}, python-json, python-lxml, python-yaml, ${misc:Depends}
README:14:* python-json

Could you change your dependencies from 'python-json' to 'python-cjson'?

Thanks.
Andrew

The dependency may actually be useless, Python's built in JSON module is probably enough. I will test this after my vacation in a week.

Thanks for the bug report; I have remove the dependency from debian/control.
