E: Unable to locate package nemesis

Question

I read about nemesis here, and I wanted to install it, but when trying to install the package with:

sudo apt-get install nemesis

I get this output:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package nemesis

So is this package no longer available then? Or is it just under a different name or something? If this package is no longer available on the main Ubuntu repositories, is there anywhere else from which I can get it? Or are there newer better packages which I should get instead of this one?

Update: My Universe repository is already enabled.

OS Information:

Description:    Ubuntu 14.10
Release:    14.10

The source is available here However, according to the change log this project hasn't been updated since 2004. Digging a bit deeper found this which appears was last updated 2013-04-11 but the code doesn't appear to have modified since May 2003 (based on filestamps in the archive). Perhaps an alternative would be useful.
