I m new to linux, trying to install packages like apache, wget, nfs-common etc as per requirement. But not even a single package is getting installed, all are giving -
Candidate failed like error-
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package wget is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'wget' has no installation candidate
