I am currently trying to implement someone else's project code to recreate their results. They've left build instructions, and running instructions, which is great. The only issue is, the original project was implemented on Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin with ROS Fuerte, and is too sprawling for me to have a reasonable chance of successfully migrating it to a newer Ubuntu/ROS.

I was able to get a virtual machine running with Ubuntu 12.04 on it. When it came to installing ROS Fuerte, I followed the instructions here, but when I try to install the pre-built binaries with apt-get (Step 1.4), I get the error

E: Unable to locate package ros-fuerte-desktop-full

I'm assuming that because Fuerte has long since passed its EOL date, the binaries have been taken off the server. I also tried to install it from source, but ran into an error in step 1.2.2:

ERROR in config: Unable to download URL [http://packages.ros.org/cgi-bin/gen_r...]: HTTP Error 404: Not Found

Have these files been moved somewhere? What is the best way to go about installing ROS Fuerte in 2019?
