A binary on my machine requires libprotobuf-c.so.1. I know that this is the Google Protocol Buffer library. How do I install this specific version though?

I searched for this library on: packages.ubuntu.com however could not find it there.

I tried the following commands to install this library on Ubuntu 14.04 however the package was not found:

sudo apt install libprotobuf-c
sudo apt install libprotobuf-c1

libprotobuf-c.so.1 is provided by the libprotobuf-c1 package in Ubuntu 18.04.

Open the terminal and run the following commands:

cd ~/Downloads
wget https://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/protobuf-c/libprotobuf-c1_1.2.1-2_amd64.deb
sudo apt install ./libprotobuf-c1_1.2.1-2_amd64.deb

If your Ubuntu 14.04 is 32-bit architecture you need to download protobuf-c/libprotobuf-c1_1.2.1-2_i386.deb instead.
