how to install qemu-kvm in ubuntu?

Question

while installing qemu-kvm i'm getting error like below :

$sudo apt-get install qemu-kvm 
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Package qemu-kvm 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
However the following packages replace it:
  qemu-user:i386 qemu-user

E: Package 'qemu-kvm' has no installation candidate

can anyone help me how to fix that issue and install qemu-kvm?

Solution

qemu-kvm is available in the main component of Ubuntu repository. I think, you might have disabled main source.

To enable main component

sudo apt-add-repository main

To refresh package index

sudo apt-get update

Install it

sudo apt-get install qemu-kvm

Hope that will fix
