Ubuntu – Running lmgrd on ubuntu 14.04 LTS

package-managementsoftware installation

I have installed Xilinx 14.7 in ubuntu 14.04 LTS machine(i386 – 64bit). But I am unable to run lmgrd (for starting the license server).

When I googled this problem, I found that lsb-core package needs to be installed. But the package is having many dependencies, I want to know how to install lsb-core package with all the necessary dependencies. Thanks for the help

On running sudo apt-get install lsb-core I got the following output:

Package lsb-core is not available, but is referred to by another package. 
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source 
E: Package 'lsb-core' has no installation candidate

So I downloaded lsb-core package from http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/misc/lsb-core site and used sudo dpkg -i ./lsb-core_4.1+Debian11ubuntu6_i386.deb to install it

By doing it, I got the following output

 Package gdebi is not available, but is referred to by another package. 
 This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is 
 only available from another source

I want to know how to install `lsb-core` package with all the necessary dependencies in one go.
