I tried to install libjasper-dev and libpng12 for opencv but I'm getting this error:

E: Unable to locate package libjasper-dev E: Unable to locate package libpng12

I also tried installing libpng16 but still I was getting the same error. How can I solve this problem?

Alternative solution:

  1. Add the following to etc/apt/source.list - this is a document you can navigate to in file manager
### Preface with a comment is optional
### Helps to remember why something was added to the list later on

### Added for libjasper-dev
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security main
  1. Update the package index
sudo apt-get update
  1. Install libjasper-dev
sudo apt-get install libjasper-dev

P.S. You may want to keep in mind that this library may be outdated or not intended for your version of Linux, so there's always a possibility that what you want it for will not work properly or stop working eventually.

You can install it:

apt-get install libpng-dev

You can download the source code from here and build:

$ wget https://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/OnLineTutorial/compile_tutorial/tar_files/jasper-1.900.1.tar.gz

$ wget https://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/OnLineTutorial/compile_tutorial/tar_files/libpng-1.2.50.tar.gz

And export the library path as follow:

$ export JASPERLIB=/home/user/build/grib2/lib
$ export JASPERINC=/home/user/build/grib2/include
