Issue with gazebo ros control
when I run sudo apt-get install ros-melodic-gazebo-ros-control
it gives me
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package ros-melodic-gazebo-ros-control is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'ros-melodic-gazebo-ros-control' has no installation candidate
how do I solve this?
I have ros melodic and gazebo 9.14.0

The reason it could be failing could be due to the way you installed ROS2, your particular OS, the way you installed gazebo, etc because those things effect weather a package can be installed or not. Please read http://wiki.ros.org/Support for guidelines on how to submit a clearer question so we can help!

@rydb I don't have ROS2, I'm on ROS1 melodic and I installed ros desktop full version on Ubuntu 18.04. other dependencies are installed without any problem like joint position control, joint effort control etc

I had to run this
wget http://packages.osrfoundation.org/gazebo.key -O - | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ros-melodic-gazebo9-ros-control
and it solved my error
