  • Typically these problems can be solved by reading carefully the output of sudo aptitude install squid3 and looking at a few different solutions (respond n) – Brandon Bertelsen Jun 26 '15 at 08:15

Problem solved... I had to download the "squid-langpack" using my browser and installed it on the ubuntu after which the "sudo apt-get install squid-common" and "sudo apt-get install squid3"

Is this all. If so then try installing the squid3-common package manually using

apt-get install squid3-common

and then try installing squid again.

    Reading state information... Done Package squid-langpack 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     – samura1 Jun 25 '15 at 20:32
  • This is because the package squid-langpack isnt available. It would be solved once you install it manually which you did. – sajinmp Jun 26 '15 at 10:42
