Asked by Frode Lillerud

Hi,
I'm looking to install Player on Ubuntu 16.04.

ref: http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/robot-player

However I get this error;

frode@xenialxerus:~$ sudo apt-get install robot-player
Reading package lists... Done

Package robot-player 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 'robot-player' has no installation candidate

I there a way to install it on Ubuntu 16.04?
