It should already be installed:

Hello,

I just in the same trouble with you! Did you find a way?

hello, Honey_Patouceul,

I know it has been already installed, but it seems it was not the right version. This problem blocked the install of Jetson Pack 3.2 on ubuntu 16.04! Would you please give me any advise?

See the answer of linuxdev to my other question. His response also solves this topic!

You should edit “sources.list” manually.

May I ask you a low-level question? Where is the “sources.list”? Haaaa

7

a text file in the following address:

/etc/apt/sources.list

Google it, you will find many tutorial and explanations

Hi,
I found the sources.list by “cd /etc/apt/” and the content of the file is as follows:
"
[b]# deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS Xenial Xerus - Release amd64 (20170801)]/ xenial main restricted

See UpgradeNotes - Community Help Wiki for how to upgrade to

newer versions of the distribution.

Then, how should I change?

The last part of the post quotes a final sources.list. Any line which starts with a “#” is inert and invisible for configuration…it is a comment only. Look at the lines which are not comments…that is what you will want to enable everything. If you think a line shouldn’t be there just put a “#” in front of it and it will still be there for you to see, but inert.

Thank other users for sharing experience. Please also get help from gstreamer forum http://gstreamer-devel.966125.n4.nabble.com/

Really appreciated you reply. I am pretty confused by the sources.list because I am a novice when it comes to Ubuntu. I should follow the recommendations from you and Mohsen that using google to learn the basic knowledge. I will have a try by wholly replace my sources.list by yours. Any outcome will be reported!

Thanks again for you patient and kindness instruction!
