sudo apt-get install apache-ant-1.9.4-bin.tar.gz

Tengo estos dos errores

¿Cómo debo proceder?

El archivo apache-ant-1.9.4-bin.tar.gzno es paquete instalable. Un paquete instalable termina con .deb.

Puede instalar ant a través del administrador de paquetes.

Pero primero debe corregir un error en su sistema:

Abra una terminal y ejecute este comando

sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list

Eliminar la línea (línea 2)

sudo apt-get install python-software-properties$

y en la línea 35 y 36 agregue un #al principio de la línea:

# This software is not part of Ubuntu, but is offered by third-party
# developers who want to ship their latest software.

y eliminar todo $de tusources.list

Luego ejecuta el comando:

sudo apt-get update

Luego instala la hormiga :

sudo apt-get install ant

Simplemente: sudo apt-get install ant

Si necesita una versión más nueva, debe extraer el .tar.gz que descargó en algún lugar y ejecutar ant desde allí.

tar xzvf apache-ant-1.9.4-bin.tar.gzextrae el archivo Básicamente es solo un archivo ZIP. Puede extraerlo también gráficamente desde el navegador de archivos.
