Can I do other else instead "add-apt-repository ppa:swift-core/release"

Asked by Qi Weining

I want to install openstack swift in 4 DELL servers. The OS is ubuntu server 12.04 64bit.
Some errors happen when "Install common Swift software prereqs:" "add-apt-repository ppa:swift-core/release".
The error is

root@cloud1:~# add-apt-repository ppa:swift-core/ppa
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/add-apt-repository", line 128, in <module>
    ppa_info = get_ppa_info_from_lp(user, ppa_name)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/softwareproperties/ppa.py", line 84, in get_ppa_info_from_lp
    curl.perform()
pycurl.error: (6, "Couldn't resolve host 'launchpad.net'")

root@cloud1:~# sudo -E add-apt-repository ppa:swift-core/ppa
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/add-apt-repository", line 128, in <module>
    ppa_info = get_ppa_info_from_lp(user, ppa_name)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/softwareproperties/ppa.py", line 84, in get_ppa_info_from_lp
    curl.perform()
pycurl.error: (6, "Couldn't resolve host 'launchpad.net'")

The network is not behide proxy.

Can I do other steps instead of “add-apt-repository ppa:swift-core/release”

Ubuntu 12.04 has Swift in its "main" archives (version 1.4.8-0ubuntu2.2) which was superseding the PPA version anyway.
You skip this step.

Can you help with this problem?
