[EP-tech] Problem with installing on Ubuntu

Hi all,

 

Having a problem getting EPrints to install on a new VBox. Have added the Deb entry to sources.list as

 

deb http://deb.eprints.org/ stable/

deb-src http://deb.eprints.org/ source/

 

(Don’t know if the last line is needed)

 

So, running sudo apt-get update gives me:

 

W: The repository 'http://deb.eprints.org stable/ Release' does not have a Release file.

N: Data from such a repository can't be authenticated and is therefore potentially dangerous to use.

N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

W: The repository 'http://deb.eprints.org source/ Release' does not have a Release file.

N: Data from such a repository can't be authenticated and is therefore potentially dangerous to use.

N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

 

Which I’m not used to seeing. I tried running an install anyway and got:

 

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree      

Reading state information... Done

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable

distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

or been moved out of Incoming.

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

 

The following packages have unmet dependencies.

eprints : PreDepends: apache2-mpm-prefork but it is not installable

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

 

Running a VBox with the latest release of Ubuntu (16.04.1). Any thoughts?
