sudo apt install elementary-sdk

It's a fresh install of loki.

This is a repository error: there is no Ubuntu version "loki", you should use "xenial" Ubuntu repositories with elementary repositories.

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/elementary.list:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/elementary-os/stable/ubuntu xenial main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/elementary-os/stable/ubuntu xenial main

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/patches.list:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/elementary-os/os-patches/ubuntu xenial main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/elementary-os/os-patches/ubuntu xenial main

  • I will investigate later tonight, but seems to me that software-properties-common is messing around with sources list.

I can verify updating "hera" to "bionic" in the following source list files allowed me to install elementary-sdk just now (for Elementary OS 5.1):

/etc/apt/sources.list
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/elementary.list
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/patches.list
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/appcenter.list

This appears to be an ongoing issue the past 4 years so I've filed a bug in GitHub so this gets fixed at its root.
