Ubuntu 16.04. LTS unable to locate package postgresql-11

I am running into this issue where I am trying to install postgresql-ll and I followed the instructions given at https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Apt. I have also read previous posts related to this issue and they aren't running into same issue as I am.



When I run apt-get install I get the following



sudo apt-get install postgresql-11 pgadmin4

E: Unable to locate package postgresql-11
E: Unable to locate package pgadmin4


I am not sure whether this error means that apt is unable to locate the repository or whether within the repository it is unable to locate the package postgresql-11. Since both packages are not being found I am guessing it is unable to find the repository.



However, I have followed repository installation instructions as well as shown below:



cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pgdg.list
deb http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt xenial-pgdg main


In the .list file I have tried both the URLs:
http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt
http://apt.postgresql.org/pub/repos/apt/



Notice the second one has a trailing slash (wasn't sure if that made a difference). Anyone has any debugging suggestions or thoughts?

          After spending 2-3 hours on this problem I realized that I had never run apt-get update after adding the pgdg.list config file. So indexes of packages available from this repository was not available on my local host. As a result apt-get install was unable to find the package.



          I will probably not make this mistake again.
