I have a x86_64 system. 3.13.0-36-generic #63-Ubuntu SMP x86_64 GNU/Linux. I'm trying to find packages for netperf. apt-get install doesn't find it. I see the package is available here, but not for x86_64: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+package/netperf I must be stupid, can someone point how can I install this package?

Thanks in advance.

    [`netperf` is in `multiverse`](http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=netperf), so you'll need to enable it – muru Jun 20 '16 at 14:52

    x86_64 means amd64 (so there is a package for you) – Zanna Jun 20 '16 at 14:57
  • @muru Multiverse is enabled by default. – Pilot6 Jun 20 '16 at 14:59
  • @Pilot6 I just booted a VM into a 16.04 ISO to check, and this is what I got: http://i.stack.imgur.com/iBiuB.png Anyway, I'm not getting into another argument with you. Keep your claims. – muru Jun 20 '16 at 15:06
  • @muru In LiveUSB you are correct. But on an installed system it is enabled. Do you ever use Ubuntu? ;-) – Pilot6 Jun 20 '16 at 15:25
  • You can test by deleting `/etc/apt/sources.list` and creating a default one. Is that the PROOF? – Pilot6 Jun 20 '16 at 15:26
  • We don't know if the OP has Universe enabled or not (might never will), so the default setting should not matter. – mikewhatever Jun 20 '16 at 15:37

I can point you to the package for x86_64 arch.

http://launchpadlibrarian.net/139606892/netperf_2.6.0-2_amd64.deb

These packages have amd64 in the name.
