xullrunner-dev - package is missing #106

Closed gubagu closed 9 years ago

gubagu commented 9 years ago

Hi everyone, Ni-c great project man, Thanks for sharing it !

I am trying to install heimcontrol.js on current 2014-09-09-wheezy-raspbian but i run to the following problem:

Package xulrunner-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.                                                                                         
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, is only available from another source
E: Package 'xulrunner-dev' has no installation candidate

Is there any known solution ?

Thanks in advance

What exactly were you installing when the error occurred?

gubagu commented 9 years ago

Hey tjanson, I was following the "Manual compilation and installation" guide xulrunner-dev is on the 2nd row ot the http://ni-c.github.io/heimcontrol.js/get-started.html -> Manual compilation and installation -> Install build prerequisites

The package seems to have been removed from Ubuntu quite a while ago… I'll have a closer look later.

It is supposedly needed for building MongoDB, but it may very well work without it, so you could just proceed with the instructions without xulrunner-dev. Another option would of course be to use the prebuilt package.

Thanks fot the info. I'll try building without it and will update this issue with the results. Cheerz

Good to hear :-). @ni-c: You could delete xulrunner-dev from the gist.
