Facing the following error: E: Unable to locate package python-empy

Question

I am trying to install the toolchain for building Px4 on Linux.

I am facing the following error when I am giving the below command:

sudo apt-get install python-argparse git-core wget zip \ python-empy qtcreator cmake build-essential

E: Unable to locate package python-empy

Answer 1

Try to do:

sudo apt-get install python-argparse git-core wget zip python-empy qtcreator cmake build-essential -y

The problem is you are using the back slash "/" wrong. It is used for the target release.
