Comments on How to Install and Configure MongoDB on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

Excellent guide, very easy!, thank you!

How can I install version 3.2.19 on Ubuntu 18?

I can't install the enterprise edition in Ubuntu 18.04 because of a conflict between libcurl3 and libcurl4:

sudo apt-get install mongodb-enterprise-server

Reading package lists... Done

Building dependency tree       

Reading state information... Done

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable

distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

or been moved out of Incoming.

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

 mongodb-enterprise-server : Depends: libcurl3 (>= 7.16.2) but it is not going to be installed

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Seems it is a problem affecting several 3rd party applications.

Maybe you can fix it when you make the bionic repository?

Thanks

Workaround is to replace libcurl4 with libcurl3, so

sudo apt-get install -y libcurl3

that should get functional version then 

sudo apt-get install -y xxxx

where xxxx is all other depends that arise, that should install them correctly

then once no more unmet dependencies go back and run your mongodb-org

sudo apt-get install -y mongodb-org

or whichever one you used before that gave the initial error

Thanks, but... wouldn't that "break" all other programs that depend on libcurl4?

Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree        Reading state information... Done libcurl4 is already the newest version (7.58.0-2ubuntu3.3). libcurl4 set to manually installed. You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these. The following packages have unmet dependencies: mongodb-org-server : Depends: libcurl3 (>= 7.16.2) but it is not going to be installed E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
