The correct syntax in your case would be:

    libertine-container-manager configure -a add -n "ppa:freecad-maintainers/freecad-daily" -i myapps

You can use `libertine-container-manager --help` or `man libertine-container-manager` to determine the correct syntax in most cases.

have u ever tried to add that ppa to install freecad? why still can't locate
 i have already done the command libertine-container-manager update --id myapps
 it show me mktemp
mktemp:failed to create directory via template '/run/user/32011/confined/com.ubuntu.terminal/tmp.XXXXXXXXXX' no such file or directory
but while i type the command it show up ppa already added in container and when i checked while open the libertine ->My Applications->settings->manage container->Additional archives and PPAs
it(the ppa) show right there maybe successfully added but why shows up
mktemp:failed to create directory via template '/run/user/32011/confined/com.ubuntu.terminal/tmp.XXXXXXXXXX' no such file or directory
maybe failed to add in some part?and that' s the reason why caused
E:Unable to locate package freecad-daily?

i mean what is the reason why i cant locate the package and cant install it correctly i hope u can try the add command and give me an answer
does it only this ppa failed or both the other ppa also have the same issue?thx in adv

Looks like you're using the ubuntu-terminal-app. It's not currently possible to use libertine-container-manager directly with the ubuntu-terminal-app due to confinement, which is the issue you are seeing. One workaround is to use `ssh localhost` in `ubuntu-terminal-app` to get around this. You could also use another terminal emulator in a Unity 7 environment or SSH from another machine. Alternatively, you can install the `libertine` or `libertine-manager-app` GUI and use that to install applications.

It looks like you're trying to install freecad-daily on a vivid-based system. If you look at the freecad-daily PPA (https://launchpad.net/~freecad-maintainers/+archive/ubuntu/freecad-daily), you'll notice that they no longer build for vivid. You will probably need to compile and install freecad-daily from source if you want to use it in the current Touch ecosystem.

If you're curious, I was able to successfully install freecad-daily with the following commands on my zesty desktop machine:

    libertine-container-manager configure -a add -n "ppa:freecad-maintainers/freecad-daily" -i myapps
    libertine-container-manager update -i myapps
    libertine-container-manager install-package -i myapps -p freecad-daily

Marking as Invalid.

Changed in libertine:
status: New → Invalid

You'll need to compile for armhf. If you have the space on your device, you could build/install the deb directly in the libertine container. Use `libertine-launch myapps bash` to start a session, and then you can pull down the source and build the deb like you would in a normal environment. Still within the bash session, you can run `dpkg -i foobar.deb` to install the package in your container.

None of those PPAs are supported on vivid.

As this is straying from the original bug, I recommend using https://askubuntu.com for further support.
