I am trying to install "libsndfile-dev". I do the following:
sudo apt-get install libsndfile-dev
As the result I get the following:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package libsndfile-dev is a virtual package provided by:
libsndfile1-dev 1.0.17-4ubuntu0.8.10.2
You should explicitly select one to install.
E: Package libsndfile-dev has no installation candidate
So, my attempt to install failed. Can anybody tell me what should I select explicitly and how can I do it?
Thank you in advance.
Looks like you should apt-get install libsndfile1-dev (note the 1).

I am trying to install mongodb on my pop os linux.
I ran this:
sudo apt install -y mongodb
Then it said this:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package mongodb 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
E: Package 'mongodb' has no installation candidate
How do i fix it? Is there a way to?
Assuming you're using Ubuntu you'll have to enable the universe repo.
I'm trying to install a .deb package with dpkg -i, but I get this error:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of modelio-open-source4.1:
modelio-open-source4.1 depends on libwebkitgtk-1.0-0; however:
Package libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 is not installed.
So it seems I need to install libwebkitgtk-1.0-0. So I run sudo apt install libwebkitgtk-1.0-0, but I get this output:

Package libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 is not available, but is referred to by another package.

Seems that you're using an invalid mirror. Just googling a bit you will easily find how to change your current mirror to a different one. Here's an answer from another Stack Exchange community:
