I am new to Ubuntu and I have some weird problem. I am trying to install a package called ckan. When I run the command sudo apt-get ckan, I have always the same answer : 'Unable to locate the package'. In fact, I notice I have the same problem with any package.
In the 'sources.list' file in the /etc/apt/ folder I have the following information. I tried to update, but the problem still remains the same
deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 12.04 LTS _Precise Pangolin...]
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise main restricted
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-security main restricted
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates main restricted
Could anyone help?

This thread posted on the Ubuntu Forum sounds similar to your problem, this might help you "Unable to locate package" errors for all software
When in doubt during installation, always try running...
Btw, I don't think ckan is included among the official packages, have a look at this link for how to install ckan http://docs.ckan.org/en/latest/install-from-package.html
