E: Unable to locate package cvc5


I'm new to SMT solvers software and would like to ask for some help installing it. On Ubuntu for Windows, it throws 'Unable to locate package cvc5' error. What could be done to solve this?

/home$ sudo apt install cvc5 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done E: Unable to locate package cvc5

Solution

  • Simply getting the binary from https://cvc5.github.io/downloads.html might be the easiest way to go, instead of trying to build it from scratch.

    If you need to compile it yourself (don't do this unless you really need to!), follow the instructions on https://cvc5.github.io/docs/cvc5-1.0.2/installation/installation.html and let us know if you run into issues.
