    E: Couldn't find package pstack

    Hello, this is my first post.

    I have problem installing pstack on Lucid 10.04.4 64-bit (TC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux | Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS)

    I did sudo apt-get install pstack and the output is:

    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree
    Reading state information... Done
    E: Couldn't find package pstack

    I tried to find the solution on the internet, but I couldn't find one, at least a step-by-step procedure to solve this issue.

    So, thanks for any answer or references about the solution. Thank you.

    PS: the purpose of this installation is to be able to create zmdiaglog (Zimbra log requested by Zimbra support regarding our company login issue)

    Re: E: Couldn't find package pstack

    As 10.04 has reached its EOL support, when you want to install any software package, you have to write the correct address where the repositories have been moved, i.e.: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/

    Please, read the following link: http://askubuntu.com/questions/91815...ported-release in order to know how

    I recommend you to install a supported ubuntu as 12.04, 12.10 or 13.04 since you are at security risk using lucid lynx, also you cannot expecto to receive any security update

    If this is a server release, EOL is April 2015

    https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases

    As ibjsb4 says - the package is there for 32bit - http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/pstack

    pstack's man page says it's a 32-bit only program, so independent of the Ubuntu version:

    RESTRICTIONS
    pstack currently works only on Linux, only on an x86 machine running 32 bit ELF binaries (64 bit not supported).
    The weird thing is that I installed and run it on my 64-bit Ubuntu (without any useful output, I must say). So, why make a program installable on a 64-bit system if the man page says it does not work? Or is the man page out of date?


    Code:
    sander@flappie:~$ sudo pstack 2623
    
    2623: chromium-browser --type=plugin --plugin-path=/usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so --lang=en-US --channel=2339.7....
    (No symbols found)
    crawl: Input/output error

    Don't know whats up with the man page, but 12.04 carries the 64bit version.
