When i tried to install joint_state_publisher package in kinetic it also installed joint_state_publisher_gui along with that. But No commands available for installing packages are helping to install the gui package in melodic.

No commands available for installing packages are helping to install the gui package in melodic.

Can you clarify this please ? If you said that installing joint_state_publisher also installed joint_state_publisher_gui then you don't need to install it anymore.

Do you mean that sudo apt install ros-melodic-joint-state-publisher-gui isn't working ?

Actually when checking for the available packages i am not able findjoint_state_publisher_gui in the available packages. On trying sudo apt install ros-melodic-joint-state-publisher-gui it is showing no packages found error

Hi go to 'Software and Updates' in the 'Other Software' tab check the

http://packages.ros.org/ros/ubuntu bionic main

if you don't have it add this then in the terminal

sudo apt update

now you can install the package with

sudo apt install ros-melodic-joint-state-publisher-gui
