How to install libavcodec with Apt for Cygwin?












1















I am having some trouble with installing new packages using cygwin's apt version of apt-get. The issue is, when I run the commands below, I receive



Coder@Coder-WIN10 ~

$ apt-cyg install libavcodec-extra-56

I've tried multiple packages, but not all are installing without issue. What is the approach that I should take when installing packages that may not be available with the current mirror?

          libavcodec-extra-56 has been updated to libavcodec-extra57 in 18.04 and later. To install it run the following command:



          sudo apt install libavcodec-extra57  


          libavcodec-extra has been updated to libavcodec-extra-58 in 18.104 and 19.04.



          In earlier Ubuntu versions before 18.04 the same package is named libavcodec-extra.



          A standard sources.list file for apt in Ubuntu 18.04 looks like this:

          • I'm still receiving "$ apt-cyg install libavcodec-extra57 Installing libavcodec-extra57 Unable to locate package libavcodec-extra57" Is there a special mirror that I'm supposed to point to with apt-cyg --mirror before being able to use the command?
