Your are probably using trusty repositories, because there are the ones indicated by the documentation.

If you are using xenial, you should change your configuration file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kurento.list

deb http://ubuntu.kurento.org xenial kms6

Then try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install kurento-media-server-6.0 again.

By the way, take into account that kurento officially supports only trusty (14.04). xenial works, but documentation is done for trusty only.

    Yes! kurento-media-server-6.0 is installed smoothly. What i did is, I deleted all kurento related files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ and as you said i used command as :- echo "deb http://ubuntu.kurento.org xenial kms6" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kurento.list to install – Jeeva Oct 04 '16 at 12:52
  • @santoscadenas Means I can not work with ubuntu 16.04? – RIYAJ KHAN Oct 27 '16 at 19:06

    Yes, you can install it and it works perfectly. The only problem is that the documentation only explains how to work with trusty, and you have to figure out the changes to work with debian. – santoscadenas Oct 28 '16 at 05:54

    @santoscadenas, Jeeva Does this mean that 16.04 is tested with Kurento 6.0? – Bilbo Baggins Jan 23 '17 at 06:01

    Yes, It is tested, but there is no official documentation. – santoscadenas Feb 01 '17 at 11:06
  • Getting this error on sudo apt-get update . The repository 'http://ubuntu.kurento.org xenial InRelease' is not signed. – Palsri Aug 20 '18 at 15:52
