Instructions for installation on Ubuntu (at least cosmic) aren't correct #44

Closed TsukiZombina closed 5 years ago

TsukiZombina commented 5 years ago

The installation at https://irkernel.github.io/installation/#linux-panel for Ubuntu say to execute: sudo apt-get install libzmq3-dev libcurl-openssl1.0-dev libssl-dev but it should be: sudo apt-get install libzmq3-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libssl-dev jupyter-core jupyter-client like it's in Debian. It gave me the same errors and solved it as in #596 .

thanks! do you know in which version it started to be called libcurl-openssl1.0?

I’ll add jupyter-core and jupyter-client to the list and mention to install libcurl-openssl1.0-dev on newer ubuntu versions and libcurl4-openssl-dev on older ones, does that make sense?

TsukiZombina commented 5 years ago

No ,I think it's libcurl-openssl1.0-dev for older ones and libcurl4-openssl-dev for newer ones. I have Ubuntu 18.10 and I just installed libcurl4-openssl-dev, even apt can't locate libcurl-openssl1.0-dev.

I’m a bit confused, but the path seems clear:

On Ubuntu, libcurl4-openssl-dev exists for all versions, libcurl-openssl1.0-dev exists just for bionic – the 18.04 LTS release. Maybe they didn’t know what name to use going forward and provided it under both names to be safe?
On Debian, it’s libcurl4-openssl-dev
