I'm trying to install software on Ubuntu but whenever I write the command at terminal (e.g. sudo apt-get install scalpel) it shows following error:

user@OCAC:~$ sudo apt-get install scalpel
[sudo] password for user: 
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
N: Ignoring file 'trusty-stella-datong.volatile' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension
N: Ignoring file 'trusty-stella-datong.volatile' in directory '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/' as it has an invalid filename extension

E: Unable to locate package scalpel

How can I solve this problem?

  • Make sure you have enabled the universe repository in your Software Sources, and then run sudo apt-get update – steeldriver May 21 '16 at 12:20
