https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-debian/
Hi, all. Sorry if this is a FAQ, but I am a newbie to MongoDB and am trying to install it on my Debian system according to the instructions above, and having problems.
Perhaps it is that I my system is running Debian buster/testing, not 9/Stretch?
I go through steps 1 and 2.
Then, on step three (running sudo apt-get update), I get a minor error or notice:
# sudo apt-get update Hit:1 https://updates.signal.org/desktop/apt xenial InRelease Ign:2 http://repo.mongodb.org/apt/debian stretch/mongodb-org/4.0 InRelease Hit:3 http://APT.spideroak.com/ubuntu-spideroak-hardy release InRelease Hit:4 https://deb.nodesource.com/node_10.x buster InRelease Hit:5 http://repo.mongodb.org/apt/debian stretch/mongodb-org/4.0 Release Hit:6 https://riot.im/packages/debian artful InRelease Hit:7 http://deb.debian.org/debian testing InRelease Hit:8 https://apt.syncthing.net syncthing InRelease Hit:10 http://deb.debian.org/debian buster InRelease Reading package lists... Done N: Skipping acquire of configured file 'main/binary-i386/Packages' as repository 'http://repo.mongodb.org/apt/debian stretch/mongodb-org/4.0 InRelease' doesn't support architecture 'i386' #
..which I don't understand whether this will kill my installing mongodb or not. But I forge on:
On step 4, under "Install the latest version of MongoDB" tab, when I try to install the main mongodb-org package, as per instructions, I hit a block:
# apt-get install -y mongodb-org Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: mongodb-org : Depends: mongodb-org-server but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. # _
When I try to install mongodb-org-server, similarly, I get an error about libcurl3:
# apt-get install -y mongodb-org-server Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: mongodb-org-server : Depends: libcurl3 (>= 7.16.2) but it is not installable E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. # _
Likewise, when I try to install libcurl3..
# apt-get install -y libcurl3 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package libcurl3 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 However the following packages replace it: libcurl4:i386 libcurl4 E: Package 'libcurl3' has no installation candidate root@sporkula:~#
So when I try to install libcurl4..
# apt-get install -y libcurl4
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
libcurl4 is already the newest version (7.61.0-1).

So I am at a loss. I've done what the instructions say, but perhaps it is that I am on debian/testing (buster)? Or am I doing something else wrong? Thanks.
