Thread: pgAdmin4 from apt.postgresql.org
Hi all, I'm delighted that there's finally a Debian package for pgAdmin4, and well done and thanks to the packagers for their hard work. However, I'm having problems installing it on my Debian Jessie laptop - I'm probably doing something silly and would appreciate help: rod@pegasus:~$ sudo apt-get update [...lots of stuff...] rod@pegasus:~$ sudo apt-get install pgadmin4 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package pgadmin4 is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'pgadmin4' has no installation candidate rod@pegasus:/etc/apt/sources.list.d$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list # PostgreSQL apt repository. deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/ jessie-pgdg main What am I doing wrong? Thanks, Ray. -- Raymond O'Donnell :: Galway :: Ireland rod@iol.ie

I am not sure. A second option would be to download the pgadmin4, pgadmin4-common and pgadmin4-doc packages and then install it using "dpkg -i" which will through a lot of dependency-missing errors. Then try apt-get -f install.

I've been hunting in https://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/dists/jessie-pgdg/ which corresponds to my Debian version. Where can I find them? Also, I should have said that apt-get update apt-cache search pgadmin4 returns no matches. I'm not an apt expert, so maybe I'm doing something wrong.

So I am not sure whether there is a package for Jessie. You can go to apt.postgresql.org/pool/main/p and download the debs mentioned above. It might be necessary to change your /etc/sources.list to a newer version of debian before getting "apt-get -f install" to get all the dependencies. Or just upgrade to a newer version of Debian :) I am not sure whether the method I mentioned will work. Be careful not to break your Jessie.

You will have to upgrade to Debian Stretch to use pgadmin4. Christoph
