1Although your answer is 100% correct, it might also become 100% useless if that link is moved, changed, merged into another one or the main site just disappears... :-( Therefore, please edit your answer, and copy the relevant steps from the link into your answer, thereby guaranteeing your answer for 100% of the lifetime of this site! ;-) You can always leave the link in at the bottom of your answer as a source for your material... – Ravan Sep 06 '15 at 01:21

-1 Link is dead. I would actually downvote, but I'm also too lazy. So I'll just criticize and not even bother ending this sentence with a period – michael Oct 06 '15 at 06:34

I found packages for all of them, so I assume just apt-get installing the packages should work:
sudo apt-get install ant openjdk-7-jdk red5-server libtomcat6-java icedtea-7-plugin
The command works for me. I have ubuntu 14.04, and on my system red5-server depends on :
shackle@shackle-desktop:~$ apt-cache depends red5-server
red5-server
Depends: adduser
|Depends: default-jre-headless
Depends: <java6-runtime-headless>
openjdk-6-jre-headless
default-jre-headless
openjdk-7-jre-headless
oracle-java6-installer
oracle-java7-installer
oracle-java8-installer
oracle-java9-installer
sun-java6-jre
Depends: libred5-java
Depends: libtomcat6-java
Conflicts: <red5>
It includes libtomcat6-java but not libtomcat7-java.
The answers to Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages might be helpful.
Perhaps :
dpkg --get-selections | grep hold
to see list of held packages
sudo apt-get remove <packagesfromabove>
then
sudo apt-get update
then retry the command above.

Heres the output when I run that command. So no. Don't assume.................... Output: The following packages have unmet dependencies: red5-server : Depends: libtomcat7-java but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. – David Sep 06 '15 at 01:33

Can you post the full set of commands and errors in your question so it can be formatted properly? Also check if there is a more detailed error message in /var/log/red5/error.log – WillShackleford Sep 06 '15 at 20:05

Open terminal and run the following commands:
sudo apt-get update
To install java:
`java -version`
(If it returns "The program java can be found in the following packages", Java hasn't been installed yet, so execute the following command:)
sudo apt-get install default-jre
sudo apt-get install default-jdk
Reference here
Install ant:
sudo apt-get install ant
To install red5:
apt-get install -y red5-server
(Here you may get some dependency problem like:
The following packages have unmet dependencies: red5-server : Depends: libtomcat6-java (>= 6.0.20-7) but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. ) then use the command
sudo apt-get install libtomcat6-java
to start red5:
service red5-server start
