Today I've migrated onto Lubuntu 18.04 from Ubuntu 16.04. Got a lot of scripts that use pdftk tool. But now I can't install it either with apt-get or with synaptic. Tried to install from deb - got a lot of unresolved dependencies, --fix-broken just deletes it.

Is there any effective way to get this tool installed?

  • Where did you get the deb from? AFAICT, Bionic does not carry pdftk at this time: packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=pdftk. Have you tried compiling from source? There's something here: pdflabs.com/tools/pdftk-server

  • Got deb for artful, thought it have a chance to be compatible. Looks like "no".

  • When trying to make from source it says that I'm need to install gcj-jdk, but it seems like there is no version for 18.04. Is it any hope that it will be available later?

  • Please mark pdftk missing in bionic as "affects me too". Note that you need to sign into Launchpad to do so.

  • Also have a look here askubuntu.com/questions/1028522/… for a workaround
