2021-08-02 Thread Julian Andres Klode
I have no idea why gnome-software doesn't find this for you, the bug is
confusingly written. The bug description suggests it is not installed,
then the comment suggests it is installed and not working?

Anyway, gnome-software should work here. And ubuntu-mate meta packages
should have the correct dependencies that packagekit is functional.

2021-07-31 Thread Norbert
On Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and 18.04 LTS this installation was done by
SessionInstaller ( https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/sessioninstaller
). In 20.04 LTS and newer systems this package is removed.

So theoretically speaking the following installation command should make
the packagekit available:

```
sudo apt-get install 'packagekit*'
```

and then `shares-admin` will open GNOME Software to install the needed 
dependencies. 
But this does not work. GNOME Software is very useful application!

So the bug is fixable by

a. manual installation of additional packages before launching `shares-
admin`:

```
sudo apt-get install nfs-kernel-server samba
shares-admin
```

b. manual download and installation of `sessioninstaller` package from
18.04 LTS and then launching `shares-admin`

```
cd ~/Downloads
wget 
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/s/sessioninstaller/sessioninstaller_0.20+bzr150-0ubuntu4.1_all.deb
sudo apt-get install ./sessioninstaller_0.20+bzr150-0ubuntu4.1_all.deb
