Oh dear, @zacwitte. That is annoying.

Which Ubuntu version are you using? If you look at the building from source instructions, you will see that some of the package names changed across versions. This should already be captured in the per-version PPAs, but maybe we've missing something? @chriseth.

Earlier versions ...

sudo apt-get -y install libjson-rpc-cpp-dev

JSON-RPC dev has been renamed in 15.10 ...

sudo apt-get -y install libjsonrpccpp-dev

Looks like CryptoPP might have changed package name at some stage too?

libcrypto++-dev

from homestead-guide.

Older Wiki content which might have some clues?
