[08:58] Bonjour / Hi / Hello [08:59] I am trying to setup Firefox Beta on Ubuntu Xenial [08:59] Using http://ppa.launchpad.net/mozillateam/firefox-next/ubuntu/dists/ [09:00] But it seems that the PPA is emtpy [09:15] natim, hi [09:16] you will see more information while looking at https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/ubuntu/firefox-next/+packages [09:19] and of course https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/ubuntu/firefox-next which describes the proper way to set it up [09:28] ricotz: Yes I configured it but I cannot install firefox 57.0b3 [09:29] natim, are you using a i386 or amd64 ubuntu version? [09:30] amb64 [09:30] amd64* [09:30] So I tried to find the file in http://ppa.launchpad.net/mozillateam/firefox-next/ubuntu/dists/xenial/main/binary-amd64/ [09:31] natim, what is the output of "apt-cache policy firefox"? [09:31] The file seems to be present here however http://ppa.launchpad.net/mozillateam/firefox-next/ubuntu/pool/main/f/firefox/firefox_57.0~b3+build1-0ubuntu0.16.04.1_amd64.deb [09:32] ricotz: Ok I see 57.0b3 but it is not an available candidate apparently [09:33] so it gets listed? then you pinned it somehow [09:33] firefox: [09:33] Installé : 55.0.2+linuxmint1+sonya [09:33] Candidat : 55.0.2+linuxmint1+sonya [09:33] Table de version : [09:33] 57.0~b3+build1-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 500 [09:33] 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/mozillateam/firefox-next/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages [09:33] *** 55.0.2+linuxmint1+sonya 700 [09:33] 700 http://mint-mirror.gwendallebihan.net/packages serena/upstream amd64 Packages [09:33] 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status [09:33] 55.0.2+build1-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 500 [09:33] 500 http://ubuntu.mirrors.ovh.net/ftp.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/main amd64 Packages [09:33] 500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security/main amd64 Packages [09:33] 45.0.2+build1-0ubuntu1 500 [09:33] 500 http://ubuntu.mirrors.ovh.net/ftp.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages [09:33] How can I change the PPA to be 800 ? [09:34] the same way "http://mint-mirror.gwendallebihan.net/packages" got tweaked [09:34] Well I guess the distro did it [09:35] I think in /etc/apt/preferences.d/ [09:38] why is mint providing its own build? [09:38] I have no idea [09:39] seems to be suspicious to do so imo [09:40] Thank you for your help and sorry for the noise [09:44] hmm https://launchpad.net/~clementlefebvre/+archive/ubuntu/ff-xenial/+packages [09:46] if this gets rebranded then it looks like some mozilla copyright problem [09:48] Interesting [09:48] I wonder how much tweaks they are doing* [09:50] you better ask them [11:09] natim, https://velenux.wordpress.com/2017/07/27/firefox-beta-ppa-on-linux-mint-18-2/ [12:33] More or less what I did
