I am trying to install k9copy but I get the following issue:
Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libav-tools
If I perform sudo apt-get install libav-tools
I get the following output:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package libav-tools 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
However the following packages replace it:
ffmpeg:i386 ffmpeg
E: Package 'libav-tools' has no installation candidate
I already have FFmpeg installed (from the repositories) and there doesn't seem to be any guides online for how to resolve this.

k9copy is long dead, k9copy-reloaded probably dead. If you were to go here, download the 2017 .deb , (- deb9u1) for your arch & install from cli with apt it may work.. tomtomtom.org/k9copy-reloaded/en.html

@doug Seems I was downloading the 2015 .deb instead of the 2017 one. Hurrah, it works! Sorry for the dumb question.

Great, figure that 18.04 will probably be the last time that 2017 .deb will work in Ubuntu (- not a dumb question, in such cases always try newest available first.

As has been pointed out by doug it is still possible to use an 'unofficial' deb package for k9copy-reloaded (rather than the long defunct k9copy) under Bionic Beaver. Compiling from source would be another option but the benefits of compiling such an older application would probably not outweigh the considerable hassle.
Install this as follows:
wget http://tomtomtom.org/k9copy-reloaded/k9copy_3.0.3-1~deb9u1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i k9copy_3.0.3-1~deb9u1_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get install -f
This installed well enough on my Bionic Beaver installation but to find the application in the Ubuntu 'Finder' some tweaks to the 2 desktop files are required (thanks to cipricus for the detective work!).
Fix for the k9copy desktop file:
sudo sed -i_bak 's|Exec=k9copy -caption|Exec=k9copy|'
/usr/share/applications/k9copy.desktop
Fix for the k9copy assistant desktop file:
sudo sed -i_bak 's|Exec=k9copy --assistant -caption|Exec=k9copy --assistant|'
/usr/share/applications/k9copy_assistant.desktop
And now all should be well. Gratuitous screenshot below:
+1 it works.. Only a bit different in my case. Or was it the same for you?sudo dpkg -i
gave missing dependencies, so I had to dosudo apt install libxine2 dvdauthor mplayer libxine2-ffmpeg
, and thensudo apt --fix-broken install
- that was all, no need for the last command.

Jun 27 at 21:35
the fact that it doesn't start normally is related to the form of the lineExec=k9copy -caption "%c" %i %u
inusr/share/applications/k9copy.desktop
. Changing that to a simple form likeExec=k9copy
solves it.

k9copy is long dead, k9copy-reloaded probably dead. If you were to go here, download the 2017 .deb , (- deb9u1) for your arch & install from cli with apt it may work.. tomtomtom.org/k9copy-reloaded/en.html

@doug Seems I was downloading the 2015 .deb instead of the 2017 one. Hurrah, it works! Sorry for the dumb question.

Great, figure that 18.04 will probably be the last time that 2017 .deb will work in Ubuntu (- not a dumb question, in such cases always try newest available first.

If you get a chance write an answer to your question, then accept that answer. Has the dual benefit of providing a valid answer & will up your rep. points a bit. Maybe change question to "How to install k9-copy in 18.04"
