amule install on ubuntu 20.4

Question

I tried to install amule 2.3.2 using apt-get install amule, but it doesn't work. Error 'Package 'amule' has no installation candidate'. On Ubuntu 19.10. it workes fine without problems. Are there any adjustments to do on 20.04?

Solution 1

You can download its packages from Ubuntu 19.10 and install them manually:

mkdir -p ~/Downloads/amule
cd ~/Downloads/amule

wget http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/a/amule/amule_2.3.2-6_amd64.deb
wget http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/a/amule/amule-common_2.3.2-6_all.deb
wget http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/w/wxwidgets3.0/libwxgtk3.0-0v5_3.0.4+dfsg-12_amd64.deb

sudo apt-get install ./*.deb

Solution 2

Does this mean that amule will longer be available in Ubuntu 20.04+? – @FedonKadifeli May 10 at 9:49

For Ubuntu 20.10 it's already available (https://packages.ubuntu.com/groovy/amule)
