Hello I am looking for help on the following issue when installing netdot on ubuntu 18.04.1
Which RDBMS do you plan to use as backend: [mysql|Pg]? mysql
We need to add a temporary repository of Netdot dependencies until all packages are in Debian/Ubuntu official repositories.

Package dnssec-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:
libnet-dns-zonefile-fast-perl
W: --force-yes is deprecated, use one of the options starting with --allow instead.
E: Package 'dnssec-tools' has no installation candidate

I also now get an error the source is not signed and will not allow me to update them. I put in my main source list deb [trusted=yes] however the install overrides that even if I alter the source list the makefile installs I just overwrite is over and over again any help here?

Have you tried typing "y" instead?
If you can't get Netdot to work under 18.04 then try a 16.04 container or VM. Even then, you will need to make some manual frigs to make it work - although a later comment on that ticket suggests maybe the same fix will work on 18.04.
Perl Class::DBI, which Netdot depends on heavily, is effectively abandonware.
I have not as that is part of the makefile, I can see if I can find anywhere to alter that command but I'm going to take a stab and say I doubt I can. I have not looked at installing a VM or container it can be an option as well
Are you running make apt-install or make installdeps at the CLI, or something else?
Both of these just run bin/perldeps.pl. And they should prompt you interactively. That is, when you get to this point:
print "Would you like to continue? [y/n] ";
my $ans = <STDIN>;
it should be waiting for either a "y" or "n" in response. Try typing "y".
If you are installing using some other script, then you need to point us to what script you're using.
Here is the output when I am getting the errors. At this point of installing the repositories is when it starts to fail out.

THis is the output when I manually alter the repository file to add in deb [trusted=yes] since errors states this is due to it not being signed so I alter it to say trusted yes and answer now to install the repository file.

OK, it's broken. If you want to run Netdot, use Ubuntu 14.04 (which works without issues but is EOL next year) or 16.04 (with the manual hacks linked to before).
Perl half release package update which broke netdot
I'm not aware of that issue - perhaps you should open a separate ticket for it?
I have Netdot running under 16.04.5 happily, so maybe you just need to do a clean re-install.
