Problems with packages installing plone on ubuntu

I am trying to install plone on ubuntu

I have downloaded and extracted the installer file. When I type: ./install.sh standalone I get the following message:

Plone installation requires the development versions of libxml2 and libxslt.
libxml2 must be version 2.7.8 or greater; libxslt must be 1.1.26 or greater.
Ideally, you should install these as dev package libraries before running install.sh.

I then tried to run: sudo apt-get install libxslt (and same for libxml2 whic worked). I am getting the message: E: Unable to locate package libxslt

Is there another package I must install that supports the libxslt, or how can I go about this?

If you are using Ubuntu/Debian you can run the following command to install the dependencies:

sudo apt-get install python-dev libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev zlib1g-dev

On my Ubuntu system, there is a package named libxslt1.1. You can try installing that one. If that doesn't work, try one of the dev packages, libxslt-dev or libxslt1-dev.

I think in any case you would need libxml2-devel and libxslt-devel (or -dev? It's possible that different distributions have different conventions for this.) This related answer suggests the package name might be libxslt1-dev.

If all else fails, but this is somewhat frowned upon, the installer has a last resort option:

--static-lxml
Forces a static built of libxml2 and libxslt dependencies. Requires Internet access to download components.

(But this cuts you off from all future security updates etc. in libxml and lixslt2.)
