E: Unable to locate package emma
My Linux is an ubuntu server with an ubuntu desktop installed on it
$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS
Release: 20.04
Codename: focal
The package is not available in the 20.04 LTS repository, but you can still install it manually by downloading packages from 18.04 LTS manually:
mkdir -p ~/Downloads/emma
cd ~/Downloads/emma
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/pygtk/python-gtk2_2.24.0-5.1ubuntu2_amd64.deb
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/pygtk/python-glade2_2.24.0-5.1ubuntu2_amd64.deb
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/python-mysqldb/python-mysqldb_1.3.10-1build1_amd64.deb
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/m/mysql-5.7/libmysqlclient20_5.7.33-0ubuntu0.18.04.1_amd64.deb
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/e/emma/emma_0.6-5_all.deb
sudo apt-get install ./*.deb
and then use it as before.
As emma is olden but golden, one guy at github started to port it to gtk3 a few years ago. Check out: https://github.com/trendfischer/emma/tree/gtk3
After download add pyparsing:
sudo apt install python-pyparsing
and make will succeed. On my system, executing ./emma brought the UI up but MySQL connections are not working as the 2.x python-mysqldb dependency is lacking. :(
For long I was relying on replacement application DBeaver and was unhappy with it every day (snap install dbeaver-ce). But since the accepted answer (see above) was updated by its author, this install-scheme now works and I'm able to use emma on 20.04 again.
See if you have these installed:
Dependent Packages
python
python-glade2
python-gtk2
python-mysqldb
Then try the following commands.
sudo apt-get update -y
This will update your package repositories.
sudo apt-get install -y emma
This may help...
