I am trying to install net-tools using
sudo apt install net-tools
but I get
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package net-tools
So I tried the following commands
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt dist-upgrade
sudo apt -f install
sudo apt autoremove
each of them respond with
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
any suggestions to fix this issue without breaking the server would be appreciated!
net-tools
package has been deprecated for quite some time (I think about 8 years now). Are you installing it to useifconfig
? – Jan 08 '21 at 23:34ss -ltu
