Comment 23 for bug 2029924

Hi Sudip,

Still trying to get lcov working on and off :).

You asked for the output of apt cache:

bp@bas-hp:~ % apt-cache policy lcov
lcov:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 2.0-1
  Version table:
     2.0-1ubuntu0.1 400
        100 http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu mantic-proposed/universe amd64 Packages
        100 http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu mantic-proposed/universe i386 Packages
     2.0-1 500
        500 http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu mantic/universe amd64 Packages
        500 http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu mantic/universe i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

So this means I should be able to install 2.0-1 "400" from proposed, and 2.0-1 "500" from universe? Or what exactly is this telling me?

I just tried to :
sudo apt-get install lcov -t mantic-proposed

Which results in:

bp@bas-hp:~ % sudo apt-get install lcov -t mantic-proposed

And then when running lcov --version

bp@bas-hp:~ % lcov --version
Can't locate lcovutil.pm in @INC (you may need to install the lcovutil module) (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib/lcov /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.36.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.36.0 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.36 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.36 /usr/share/perl/5.36 /usr/local/lib/site_perl) at /usr/bin/lcov line 102.

still gives me the same error.

What am I still doing wrong?
