apt-get install does not work

  • 772

I want to install snmp on my computer. Evey time I do apt-get install snmp snmpd mbrowse it displays this message:

reading packages list...Fait
building dependency tree
reading state informations... fait
package snmp is not available but it is refered to bu another package. this may mean that the package is missing , has been obsoleted or is only available from another source
however the following package replace it:
libsnmp15

I don't understand the problem. I mean apt-get is supposed to be a first step to configure snmp. If the downloading is such a mess, how the configuration would be?

apt

  1. Run apt-get update before running apt-get install.
