Release on Ubuntu 20.04

[iinuwa]

The package for Ubuntu 20.04 is missing. Could the .deb be pushed to the focal repo as well?

[prescottbreeden]

are there any active maintainers working on this? or is this a dead product?

Same issue. Cannot get it work on Ubuntu 20.04. Tried 19.10

sudo apt-add-repository https://packages.microsoft.com/ubuntu/19.10/prod
sudo apt-get update

but not helped. Still getting this error:

Unable to locate package mssql-cli

This product is not dead, though it may be a couple months until we can get releasing on Ubuntu 20.04.

I get:
The following packages have unmet dependencies: mssql-cli : Depends: libicu52 but it is not installable or libicu55 but it is not installable or libicu57 but it is not installable or libicu60 but it is not installable E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

when I run: sudo apt install mssql-cli

Is there a work around, until the Ubuntu 20.04 release is ready?

[iinuwa]

Installing with python3 -m pip install mssql-cli worked for me; I just had to modify the file placed in ~/bin to use Python 3, IIRC.

Still not working with Ubuntu 20.04, any idea when this might be added?

Hey guys, do we have an ETA for when this package will be availible for 20.04 in the repo? Thanks!
