[SOLVED] E: Unable to locate package python-qt4 with openjdk:13.0.1-debian image

Issue

I'm trying to build an image with openjdk:13.0.1-debian and getting the below error:

E: Unable to locate package python-qt4
E: Unable to locate package python-pip

Below is the portion of image that I was trying to install.

RUN apt-get update -y && apt-get install -o APT::Install-Suggests=0 -o APT::Install-Recommends=0  --no-install-recommends -y \
    python-qt4 \ 
    python-pip \

Please help.

Solution

That's because debs python-qt4 and python-pip are not available on sid: https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=python-qt4

But can be installed with backports. Add buster backports to sources.list:

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster main
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian buster main

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-security/ buster/updates main
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian-security/ buster/updates main

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates main
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates main

Or just use debian:buster.
