E: Unable to locate package arm-none-eabi-gcc - linux

I'm working on a project in which I've to compile a MicroPython stack and build a firmware file for my STM32 boards. At present, I'm following through the instruction set given on https://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/develop/gettingstarted.html. Hence, to compile the code, I need an ARM cross-compiler (mentioned on the website). After entering the following command on the terminal "sudo apt-get install arm-none-eabi-gcc arm-none-eabi-binutils arm-none-eabi-newlib", I'm getting some errors (basically, unable to locate packages). I tried googling a lot but didn't come across any relevant links. Does anyone know what I need to do?
My pc configurations are AMD Ryzen 5 processor (IdeaPad 3 15ALC6), and I'm using Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS OS. The snippet of the error is given below:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package arm-none-eabi-gcc
E: Unable to locate package arm-none-eabi-binutils
E: Unable to locate package arm-none-eabi-newlib

I found the solution based on the discussion available at https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/377345/installing-arm-none-eabi-gcc and the documentation available on https://mynewt.apache.org/latest/get_started/native_install/cross_tools.html#installing-the-arm-cross-toolchain.
The name and structure of the software changed over time. The arm-none-eabi-gcc is gcc-arm-none-eabi now, and so on.
$ sudo apt-get remove binutils-arm-none-eabi gcc-arm-none-eabi
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-gcc-arm-embedded/ppa
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get upgrade
$ sudo apt-get install gcc-arm-none-eabi
$ sudo apt-get install gdb-arm-none-eabi
And finally, to verify the downloads, you can run the following commands:
arm-none-eabi-gcc --version
arm-none-eabi-g++ --version
arm-none-eabi-size --version

In /etc/apt/sources.list, make sure the lines with universe are uncommented.
Re-run apt update and (as long as you have a working internter connection) it should work.

Installing octave in termux, "Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages"

I am trying to install octave from the "Its Pointless" repository mentioned in the termux wiki. The repository is added successfully as far as I can tell. However, when I try the command pkg install octave I get the error "octave Depends openblas" "octave Depends arpack-ng" "Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages"
I have run dpkg --get-selections | grep held but it doesn't return anything.
When I try to run pkg install openblas it gives the error "openblas Depends libgcc but it is not installable"
When I try to run pkg install libgcc it gives the error "package libgcc is not available but is referred to by another package, this may mean the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source. However, the following packages replace it: ndk-sysroot"
After searching some more I did pkg install clang but I still get the same errors. ndk-sysroot has been installed during installation of clang.
I have done apt-get autoclean, apt-get autoremove and apt-get purge but that did not do anything.
What can I do to fix this problem and install octave on my phone?
The problem got solved by itself.
I tried pkg install octave again and got a response saying "The repository https://termux.net stable Release is no longer signed."
So I ran the command bash setup-pointless-repo.sh again.
And that was it! pkg install octave is now working.

Error with swift command in terminal in ubuntu 15.04

I installed the open sourced version of Swift from swift.org for Ubuntu 15.10, but I am running Ubuntu 15.04 in my machine. Now when I executed the swift command in the terminal it raising the following error.
swift/usr/bin/repl_swift:error while loading shared libraries:
libicuuc.so.55: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
directory
error: failed to stop process at REPL breakpoint
I ran the following command to ensure libicu52 is installed.
sudo apt-get install libicu52
Please help me to sort out this problem.
Thanks in advance.
Try this one
wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/i/icu/libicu55_55.1-7_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i libicu55_55.1-7_amd64.deb
It worked for me
For newer versions where it complains about libicuuc.so.57: cannot open shared object file (version 57), use the following:
sudo wget http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/i/icu/libicu57_57.1-6ubuntu0.3_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i libicu57_57.1-6ubuntu0.3_amd64.deb
In general, you can search here for the version you need.
I tried this as well
apt-get install libicu-dev
It worked for me
You don't need libicu-dev unless you are building Swift from source. The problem is that, as pointed out by gengisdave, libicu52 is installed on the machine, but libicu55 is required. A few things you might try:
See if apt-get install libicu55 is going to install the needed version.
Install the binary distribution intended for Ubuntu 14.04. That one requires libicu52, which you do have on the system. This may or may not work, and if it does at first, it may break unexpectedly later depending on what you are doing.
This is even worse, but you might try it if you are just experimenting. Use dpkg -L libicu52 to find out where libicuuc.so.52 is located and create a symlink to it, named libicuuc.so.55, in the same directory.
Before the 8th of December this used to work
echo "deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security main" | sudo tee --
append /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libicu55

(ONIE) stg: command not found and Error 127 in Ubuntu terminal

I was trying to follow this guide: https://github.com/opencomputeproject/onie/blob/master/machine/kvm_x86_64/INSTALL but have gotten stuck.
On this line: make MACHINE=kvm_x86_64 all, I get stg: command not found when it is trying to apply a patch. I get Error 127 on a make command. Here's the output:
I have g++ and git installed. What am I doing wrong?
From the ONIE project wiki Building ONIE:
For a Debian-based system, a Makefile target exists that installs the required packages on your build machine. The ONIE project will maintain this target for the current stable version of Debian. This target requires the use of sudo(8), since package installation requires root privileges:
$ cd build-config
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential
$ make debian-prepare-build-host
I built this on Ubuntu Desktop 15.04. For anyone else trying to build ONIE virtual machine, install these packages first:
Packages
qemu-kvm
git
stg
gperf
bison
flex
autoconf
texinfo
gawk
libtool
libtool-bin
libncurses5-dev
libexpat1
libexpat1-dev
python2.7-dev
python3.4-dev
xorriso
You can install most of these with sudo apt-get install <package>. You should be able to follow the ONIE guide now and set it up. Thanks to EtanReisner for all the help!
On Ubuntu, install stg package by,
sudo apt-get install stgit
the error stg: command not found should be resolved.

"configure: error: libnl and libnl-genl are required but were not found"

I'm trying to configure powertop-2.5 but when I run ./configure I get a "configure: error: libnl and libnl-genl are required but were not found" error
I've run
sudo apt-get install libtool autoconf libnl-dev ncurses-dev pciutils-dev build-essential -y
as was recommended by these guys but I get the same error.
I ran
sudo apt-get install libnl-genl-3-dev
Which replaced the previous libnl file but I still get the config error.
According to this, powertop has (or had) problems with detecting libnl but I can't figure out how to fix it.
I'm currently running Linux username 3.2.0-4-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 3.2.51-1 i686 GNU/Linux
I see you tried libnl-dev, maybe try libnl-3-dev instead:
sudo apt-get install libnl-3-dev libnl-genl-3-dev
Probably the problem is the lack of the pkg-config application in your system (which is used to find the proper dependencies with the configure script). I just have the same problem in a fresh installed Ubuntu 14.04 system, and after installing the pkg-config package the configure script finalized successfully its work. Then I could compile and install the last version (2.6.1) of powertop.
I "solved" my problem by installing powertop-2.0 instead.
The use of pkg-config made the trick. I was able to install Powertop 2.7.

How to fix Error 2 when trying to make haskell-platform?

I downloaded the Haskell-platform source from here: http://www.haskell.org/platform/linux.html, installed ghc, and did /.configure. However when I do sudo make, I get the following error:
Preprocessing library HUnit-1.2.4.2...
Test/HUnit/Base.hs:1:1:
Could not find module `Prelude'
Perhaps you haven't installed the profiling libraries for package `base'?
Use -v to see a list of the files searched for.
Error:
Building the HUnit-1.2.4.2 package failed
make: *** [build.stamp] Error 2
Does anyone knows how to fix this?
I'm trying to install on Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS
Instead of trying to install from the sources, simply install the Ubuntu packages, which will be much simpler, with:
$ sudo apt-get install haskell-platform
If you need a local version of the documentation and the profiling libraries, install the additional packages with:
$ sudo apt-get install haskell-platform-doc haskell-platform-prof
Daniel Fisher's comment led me to the solution. You have to install all the profiling libraries for each of the ghc packages you have installed.
Just write
sudo apt-get install ghc*-prof
That's how it worked for me
