This tells me that you did not run this step:

> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install elasticsearch-curator
>

The reason why I know this is that I can see that `packages.elastic.co` does not appear in the `apt update` list of repositories.

I do see `artifacts.elastic.co`, but that is a separate repository. The curator packages are in `packages.elastic.co`.

See [this step](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/curator/5.8/apt-repository.html#_repository_configuration):

> Add one of the following — **noting the correct path, `debian` or `debian9`** — in your `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/` directory in a file with a `.list` suffix, for example `curator.list`

```auto
deb [arch=amd64] https://packages.elastic.co/curator/5/debian stable main

```

and then you can run `sudo apt update && sudo apt install elasticsearch-curator`

Please perform that step and Curator 5.8 should install.
