It might have been a dependency issue but good to hear it's working now!

I've successfully installed MC on quite a few Intel Linux machines and even a Pi 3B in the past so I'm pretty familiar with the process but keep getting 'E: Unable to locate package mediacenter26' after going through all the steps.  I get the same response with MC 25 which is the version I actually want to install.

Hardware is a Pi 4B with 4 gb of RAM running Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS 64 bit and stock Ubuntu Desktop. 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Zhillsguy:
Can you install using the .deb file?

"Also it's worth mentioning that MC26 will likely be rebased on Debian Buster soon, which means MC26 won't run on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (or Linux Mint 19) anymore. This is due to them having an older GLIBC library whereas MC26 will require a newer version of the GLIBC library found in Debian Buster and newer versions of Ubuntu. It's not possible to update the GLIBC library to the version that will be needed by MC26 in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS or Linux Mint 19 so they simply won't be able to run on those OSes anymore. Just something to be aware of."

I can confirm that MC26 will not install on Ubuntu server 18.04 - it would be helpful if this note were posted at the top of the sticky to prevent neanderthals like me from going down this path. ::)

Debian is a non-starter for me: I wasted far too much time trying to get a 2020 bare bones USB keyboard and mouse to work properly. 

No mouse/keyboard issues with the SuperMicro bios, or later under Ubuntu, but Debian is a witch!

This has actually not changed yet and it should still work on Ubuntu 18.04. Do note however that we only officially support Debian.
