In a fresh install of Ubuntu Mate 19.04 (64 bit) when I try to install Tomboy this is what I get:
$ sudo apt install tomboy
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package tomboy 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
E: Package 'tomboy' has no installation candidate
sources.list
has the Universe repository (as by default), packages.ubuntu.com shows it's not available, and apt-cache search comes back empty and I can't install it.
Is Tomboy completely gone ? Is there another way of geting it in 19.04 ?
I'd appreciate any suggestions on this, I couldn't find previous reports of this problem.

Tomboy has been discontinued in Ubuntu 19.04, however Gnote is almost identical to Tomboy and in fact you can export Tomboy notes and then copy all of them together into Gnote. You can also export Gnote notes and then copy all of them together into Tomboy. You can use Gnote as a backup app to store backups of Tomboy notes and vice versa, because Tomboy notes and Gnote notes are completely compatible.
To install Gnote open the terminal and type:
sudo apt install gnote
Wow, this should have been in the release notes. :( Thanks for the information, I need to use Grauphel so for now can't upgrade all desktops for 19.04 and m igrate to GNote. I'll check if GNote supports web sync the way Grauphel implements it. What was supposed to be a new quick install turned into a 2h quest.

If it works with Tomboy it will work with Gnote. Just don't delete any of your backed up notes, so you will have backups of your notes in case a sync does something you didn't want it to do.

Thanks a lot, that link has a lot of outdated information, it also proposes a Flatpak install which is broken too.
