neard(-tools) in Ubuntu 20.04

Solution 1:

Better way is to install neard packages https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/neard-tools from supported Ubuntu 18.04 LTS repository manually as follows:

cd ~/Downloads
wget -c http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/n/neard/neard_0.16-0.1_amd64.deb
wget -c http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/n/neard/neard-tools_0.16-0.1_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get install ./neard_0.16-0.1_amd64.deb ./neard-tools_0.16-0.1_amd64.deb

Installation from proposed is possible from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/neard/0.16-0.1/+build/11887550 as follows:

cd ~/Downloads
wget -c https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/neard/0.16-0.1/+build/11887550/+files/neard_0.16-0.1_amd64.deb
wget -c https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/neard/0.16-0.1/+build/11887550/+files/neard-tools_0.16-0.1_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get install ./neard_0.16-0.1_amd64.deb ./neard-tools_0.16-0.1_amd64.deb

but I can't find the reason for this.
