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

In Ubuntu gant is provided by gant package.

gant is:

Gant is a build tool for scripting Ant tasks using Groovy instead of XML to specify the build logic. A Gant build specification is a Groovy script and so can bring all the power of Groovy to bear directly, something not possible with Ant scripts. Whilst it might be seen as a competitor to Ant, Gant uses Ant tasks for many of the actions, so Gant is really an alternative way of doing builds using Ant, but using a programming language rather than XML to specify the build rules.

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

sudo apt-get -y install gant

sudo apt -y install gant
