I need to install ImageMagick for giving support to a Ruby application I currently am working on. This runs into a VM on which Ubuntu 12.04 is installed (particularly, hashicorp/precise32 release in Vagrant).

I run:

sudo apt-get install imagemagick --fix-missing

And after accepting the changes, I'm met with the following errors:

Err http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates/main libjasper1 i386 1.900.1-13ubuntu0.1
  404  Not Found [IP: 91.189.91.14 80]
Err http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-security/main libjasper1 i386 1.900.1-13ubuntu0.1
  404  Not Found [IP: 91.189.91.15 80]
Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/j/jasper/libjasper1_1.900.1-13ubuntu0.1_i386.deb  404  Not Found [IP: 91.189.91.15 80]
Unable to correct missing packages.
E: Aborting install.

At this point, I'm not entirely sure how to proceed. I've checked the repositories and the files are there, except that they are labeled ubuntu0.2_i386.deb instead of ubuntu0.1_i386.deb. Would it be safe for me to overwrite 0.1 by 0.2? If so, how do I do it?

Thanks!

  • It might be that your sources are out of date - try running sudo apt-get update beforehand. – Wilf Feb 15 '15 at 01:45
  • @Wilf That did the trick indeed -- if you want to post it as an answer with some background on sources + updates, I'll be more than happy to accept it as the right answer. – Alpha Feb 15 '15 at 01:49

It might be that your sources are out of date, so are asking for old URLs instead of the current ones - try running sudo apt-get update before installing stuff.
