Perl packages on Ubuntu 14, 64-bit

Asked by dmwpepper

I'm an apt-get neophyte and was running this command on a new Ubuntu 14 (64-bit):

apt-get install perl perl-base perl-modules libnet-server-perl libnet-dns-perl libipc-shareable-perl libio-socket-ssl-perl libiptables-ipv4-ipqueue-perl

I got the following message
root@ubuntu:/home/dave# apt-get install perl perl-base perl-modules libnet-server-perl libnet-dns-perl libipc-shareable-perl libio-socket-ssl-perl libiptables-ipv4-ipqueue-perl
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package libiptables-ipv4-ipqueue-perl

Does anyone know how to get this package? Does it go by another name on Ubuntu 14? I'm not too familiar with looking up package names with apt.

Thanks,
Dave

The package libiptables-ipv4-ipqueue-perl existed only for Ubuntu versions up to quantal, and has been abandoned because of a dependency on functionality that is no more available in the 3.5 kernel. see Bug #1020598

It seems that a new package will be provided with vivid.

What do you need that package for?
Is it for INetSim?
Then you might try using the following instructions (based on http://www.inetsim.org/packages.html with the commands slightly modified for Ubuntu 14.04 or 14.10):

wget -O - http://www.inetsim.org/inetsim.org-archive-signing-key.asc | apt-key add -
echo "deb http://www.inetsim.org/debian/ binary/ " | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/inetsim.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install inetsim || sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends inetsim
