I am using ubuntu 10.10 trying to install libevent development libraries libevent1 and libevent2. I used the below command-
apt-get install libevent-dev libevent1-dev
But it shows-
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package libevent1-dev
Then i used- apt-get install libevent-dev
But it says libevent-dev is already a newest version. Is that libevent2?
I'm a root user. Am I doing anything wrong? Does ubuntu 10.10 support libevent2? Really appreciate your help. Thanks
Yes, libevent-dev installs libevent2. If you check what apt-get says when it installs it:
apt-get install libevent-dev
