| breed | Hey, can someone gimme a hand? | 03:42 |
|---|---|---|
| breed | Anyone around? | 03:45 |
| wgrant | breed: Hi | 03:50 |
| breed | Oh, wgrant | 04:01 |
| breed | Sorry, didn't hear it ping me | 04:01 |
| breed | Still around? | 04:01 |
| wgrant | breed: Yes, what's up? | 04:02 |
| breed | Okay, so I followed all the steps to install this PPA, but I have no clue how I access it now. I can't find it when I search or anything | 04:03 |
| breed | No clue where it is or how I get to it | 04:03 |
| wgrant | You'd install a package that the PPA contains. | 04:03 |
| wgrant | Which PPA? | 04:03 |
| breed | Bitcoin-qt | 04:04 |
| wgrant | That's not a full PPA URL | 04:04 |
| breed | Oh, you want the IRL | 04:04 |
| breed | URL | 04:04 |
| wgrant | Well, there could be a thousand PPAs named bitcoin-qt owned by different users. | 04:05 |
| breed | http://ppa.launchpad.net/bitcoin/bitcoin/ubuntu | 04:05 |
| breed | Sorry, I'm new to Linux | 04:05 |
| breed | If that's not the right thing, lemme know | 04:06 |
| wgrant | How did you add the PPA? | 04:06 |
| breed | Through command line. I followed the instructions here: https://launchpad.net/~bitcoin/+archive/bitcoin | 04:07 |
| wgrant | Ah | 04:07 |
| wgrant | Open Ubuntu Software Center and search for bitcoin. Hopefully it'll find the package | 04:07 |
| wgrant | Otherwise, run 'sudo apt-get install bitcoin-qt' | 04:08 |
| breed | Yeah, I looked for it in the Center before, but nothing came up | 04:08 |
| breed | I'm trying that line now | 04:08 |
| breed | Looks like it's working, thank you | 04:08 |
| breed | Worked! Thanks a bunch. I had one more issue, if you don't mind | 04:09 |
| wgrant | Sure | 04:09 |
| breed | How do I edit my repositories list? I'm trying to install Spotify from here: https://www.spotify.com/int/download/previews/ | 04:10 |
| breed | Not sure if it's the same as a PPA though | 04:11 |
| wgrant | breed: That's a bit more awkward than adding a PPA. Open up Software Center, Edit->Software Sources, Other Software, Add, enter the "deb http://..." line from that page, then run the "sudo apt-..." commands in a terminal | 04:12 |

| breed | wgrant: I got an error when I tried 'sudo apt-get update' | 04:16 |
| breed | W: GPG error: http://repository.spotify.com stable Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 082CCEDF94558F59 | 04:16 |
| StevenK | breed: You need to run the apt-key line too | 04:17 |
| breed | I dunno how to do that...sorry | 04:19 |
| breed | It says some stuff on the site | 04:19 |
| breed | But idk how to input ot | 04:19 |
| breed | # 2. If you want to verify the downloaded packages, | 04:19 |
| breed | # you will need to add our public key | 04:19 |
| breed | sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 94558F59 | 04:19 |
| StevenK | breed: Copy the 'sudo apt-key ...' line into your terminal and run it | 04:20 |
| breed | THe whole thing? | 04:21 |
| StevenK | Just like you did with sudo apt-get update | 04:21 |
| StevenK | Yes, the whole line. | 04:21 |
| breed | Ah, that didn't work the first time. Must've had a typo. Thank you, StevenK | 04:22 |
| breed | Thanks for the help, guys | 04:28 |

| ojii | is there a convenient way to test a branch of a ppa on launchpad? (as in "upgrade" my local installation of that package using that branch) | 14:55 |
| dobey | ojii: i don't quite understand the question. PPAs don't have branches. | 15:10 |
| ojii | dobey, maybe I don't understand how launchpad works at all. there's a package in a ppa which fixed a bug i reported in a branch, now I wanna test it | 15:13 |
| ojii | so I hoped there was an easy trick to do so, something like apt-get install this-branch-on-launchpad | 15:14 |
| dobey | you add the PPA to your apt sources, and then install/upgrade the package | 15:14 |
| ojii | dobey, I did that, but doesn't that just get the main branch/package? | 15:15 |
| dobey | apt-add-repository is the command line tool to add a PPA, it takes the ppa:owner/name uri as an argument | 15:15 |
| dobey | apt-cache policy $package will show you where the package is installed from, and where other versions are available, given your apt sources (and an updated cace after apt-get update) | 15:16 |
| dobey | ojii: i think you're using the term 'branch' wrong here. PPAs are not branches of things. and binary packages do not have branches. source packages /may/ be stored in a branch, but it is not a requirement | 15:17 |
| ojii | dobey, I mean the source package then. | 15:18 |
| ojii | I thought launchpad did some magical auto-building of packages | 15:18 |
| dobey | no | 15:19 |
