On Ubuntu 20.04, when trying to install the offline simulator 5.13, I get the following error when running the installation script:
` Checking java version

Package libcurl3 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:
libcurl4:i386 libcurl4
E: Package ‘libcurl3’ has no installation candidate
`
Any suggestions on how to solve this?
Do you need to use this version of Ubuntu?
If you can choose the version yourself, you should use the one recommended by UR:
Linux Mint 17.1 Rebbecca distribution (Ubuntu 14.04 based)
If you have to use Ubuntu20.04 have you tried installing libcurl4 manually?
If it is required, it will be used automatically whenever libcurl3 is referenced (if I remember correctly).
Yes, my company has its own Linux distribution which is currently based on Ubuntu 20.04 - we can only use that one. I did install libcurl4 from apt, but that didn’t change the error message above.
Hi, I ran into the same problem with Ubuntu 20.04, did you manage to solve the problem at the end?
Nope, still an open problem.
Hi All
a quick search gave me the following result, with a fix that works.
Edit install.sh and remove libcurl3
Then installation continues.
Don’t know if this affects anything else.
