help with ppa

Asked by rob stanton on 2010-10-09

I am having a problem with the Deluge PPA. I've followed the steps given ie

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deluge-team/ppa

In the CLI it comes back with

Executing: gpg --ignore-time-conflict --no-options --no-default-keyring --secret-keyring /etc/apt/secring.gpg --trustdb-name /etc/apt/trustdb.gpg --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg --primary-keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 8EED8FB4A8E6DA6DFDF0192BC5E6A5ED249AD24C
gpg: requesting key 249AD24C from hkp server keyserver.ubuntu.com
gpg: key 249AD24C: "Launchpad PPA for Deluge Team" not changed
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg: unchanged: 1

After doing Step 3: Now, as a one-off, you should tell your system to pull down the latest list of software from each archive it knows about, including the PPA you just added:

sudo apt-get update

The program never changes to 1.3.0, its stuck at 1.2.3. What have I missed here...

If you read the package list here:
https://launchpad.net/~deluge-team/+archive/ppa

the PPA doesn't have 1.3 at all, It actually only has:
deluge 1.2.3+git20100701.131af5a-2~lucid~ppa1

So that PPA doesn't have what you need.

thanks for the answer Actionparsnip. However I not sure I understand it! When I open Deluge it tells me there is a new version 1.3.0. I cant install it. What do I need to do to install it...

The ppa you are adding has been added to your system but it doesn't have version 1.3.0 it only has 1.2.3

You need to run:

echo "deb http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/getdeb/ubuntu lucid-getdeb apps" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list; echo "deb-src http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/getdeb/ubuntu lucid-getdeb apps" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list; sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver pgp.mit.edu 46D7E7CF; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade

You can now install deluge if you don't already have it, otherwise the command will upgrade what you already have. Copy the command as ONE big command and run it.

1.3 is already in maverick

You could have found the same guide with websearches which is all I used.
