How To Fix sqlobject-convertOldURI: command not found in Ubuntu / Debian / Kali Linux / Raspbian

In Ubuntu sqlobject-convertOldURI is provided by sqlobject-admin package.

sqlobject-admin is:

SQLObject is an object-relational mapper. It allows you to translate RDBMS table rows into Python objects, and manipulate those objects to transparently manipulate the database.

In using SQLObject, you will create a class definition that will describe how the object connects to the database (in addition to any other methods you may wish to add to the class). SQLObject will produce the code to access the database, and update the database with your changes. The interface to the database is meant to be indistinguishable from other interfaces you may add to the object.

SQLObject also includes a novel feature to generate WHERE clauses using Python syntax and objects (instead of generating SQL using string substitution, as is traditional).

This package includes the sqlobject-admin and sqlobject-convertOldURI helper applications for use with SQLObject.

sudo apt-get -y install sqlobject-admin
