Use these commands:

sudo add-apt-repository 'deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security main'
sudo apt update
sudo apt install libjasper1 libjasper-dev

This worked on my Ubuntu 18.04 after I replaced the double-quotes with single quotes. With the double quotes I was getting this error:

Error: need a single repository as argument

There should be an additional single quote before deb. – atakli Aug 18 '22 at 07:33

Under Ubuntu18.04, if you directly add-apt-repository will encounter another GPG error.

$ sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security main"

W: An error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the previous index files will be used. GPG error: https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian stable InRelease: The following signatures were invalid: ...EXPKEYSIGhttps://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/dists/stable/InRelease  The following signatures were invalid: EXPKEYSIG ...

You have to update the key

sudo apt-key adv --refresh-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com

Then you are now safe to install libjasper-dev.

sudo apt-get install libjasper-dev

This helped me fixed the problem, thanks :-) – intumwa May 09 '22 at 15:50 — intumwa, May 09 '22 at 15:50

To build the latest version of libjasper as package for Ubuntu do the following:

Download the Jasper source code from here: https://github.com/jasper-software/jasper/tree/version-2.0.25

Run the following script:

#!/bin/bash

VERSION=2.0.25

unzip jasper-version-$VERSION.zip
cd jasper-version-$VERSION
mkdir compile

SOURCE_DIR=`pwd`
BUILD_DIR=compile
INSTALL_DIR=/usr
OPTIONS=

cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -H$SOURCE_DIR -B$BUILD_DIR -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$INSTALL_DIR $OPTIONS

cd compile
make clean all

cat >description-pak <<EOF
JasPer Image Processing/Coding Tool Kit
EOF

fakeroot checkinstall --fstrans --install=no --pkgname=libjasper --pkgversion=$VERSION --pkgrelease 1 --pkglicense="JasPer 2.0" \
         bash -c "make install" </dev/null

mv libjasper_$VERSION-1_amd64.deb ../..
cd ../..
rm -rf jasper-version-$VERSION

Result is a Debian package that can be installed using dpkg or apt.

This Solution was tested on mendel(debian) with arm64 architecture. If this works for Ubuntu is not clear.

Open terminal and run the following commands:

cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d
sudo nano multistrap-main.list

Add there these two lines:

deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports xenial-security main
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports impish main

save and exit. Then run:

sudo apt update

If there is a key missing use the following and run again update:

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys <key>

Then install jasper:

sudo apt-get install libjasper-dev

Finally remove or comment out the added repositories from multistrap-main.list.

Add the Repository to APT

$ sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security main"

Run an advanced key server command

$ sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 3B4FE6ACC0B21F32

Update the package manager

$ sudo apt update

Install the libjasper-dev library

$ sudo apt install libjasper1 libjasper-dev
