Tried to install dependencies separately and got these errors.

@YoEight have you set up the correct apt-get feed for Ubuntu 16.04? It must be Xenial. If you are not sure, try this:

sudo sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=amd64] https://apt-mo.trafficmanager.net/repos/dotnet-release/ xenial main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dotnetdev.list'
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys 417A0893
sudo apt-get update

and try again installing dotnet-dev-1.0.1

I’ll add a Mint 18 label next to 16.04 on the Ubuntu page to make that bit clear.

As far as installing the various packages individually, it’s not recommended that you do so. If you do give it a try, the host and shared framework packages must be installed in a particular order.

• dotnet-host
• dotnet-hostfxr-1.0.1 and/or dotnet-hostfxr-1.1.0
• dotnet-sharedframework-microsoft.netcore.app-1.0.4 and/or dotnet-sharedframework-microsoft.netcore.app-1.1.0

There is no ‘raw’ sdk package at this time.
