How To Fix autoproject: command not found in Ubuntu / Debian / Kali Linux / Raspbian

In Ubuntu autoproject is provided by autoproject package.

autoproject is:

autoproject interviews the user, then creates a source package for a new program which follows the GNU programming standards. The new package uses autoconf to configure itself, and automake to create the Makefile.

The idea is that you execute autoproject just once when you start a new project. It will ask a few questions, then create a new directory and populate it with standard files, customized for the new project.

Optionally, the new package will use a command line parser generator. Currently, autoproject supports two parser generators: clig by Harald Kirsch [email protected] (see http://wsd.iitb.fhg.de/software/), and autogen by Bruce Korb [email protected] (see http://autogen.sf.net/).

To fix this problem, we can install more using the command below.

sudo apt-get -y install autoproject

This command might take some time to finish depending on your machine internet connection.

You can also use apt command to install autoproject.

sudo apt -y install autoproject

Or if you have aptitude installed you can use the following command.

sudo aptitude install autoproject
