Issue using Apt install for dh-virtualenv
georgeoffley opened this issue · 5 comments
I am trying to test out dh-virtualenv to determine if it is suitable for us to package our python software. I've been able to get all the helper utils to run, but when I run apt install dh-virtualenv, I get the following error:
E: Unable to locate package dh-virtualenv
I am running on Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS x64 through a VM on my Windows 10 unit. I have also tried the other suggested install options, but I get the same results—each one reporting that an installation package could not be found.
Hi,
you should be able to install the package from the PPA.
Note that the PPA is my personal one and might not receive updates as timely
I actually tried this alternative as well and got similar results saying that there is no release candidate when trying the install. Here is the output that I get when running the PPA install:
george@george-VirtualBox:~$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jyrki-pulliainen/dh-virtualenv

Are there any other suggestions?
Download the DEB file from sid, then dpkg -i it. Works everywhere not-to-ancient, and always the same.
@jhermann hello I actually tried this today. When I go to dpkg -i the debian package I get a bunch of weird dependency issues. This is my print out:
root@62f92b70527b:/packages# dpkg -i dh-virtualenv_1.2.1-1_all.deb

dpkg: error processing package dh-virtualenv (--install):

dh-virtualenv
I am running from within a docker container using the latest python install.
dpkg is not apt, dependencies need to be there already (e.g. install old dh-venv, then upgrade via dpkg).
