[06:29] <RikMills> valorie: see my email to kubuntu-devel. In short, as said in the Plasma beta story, upgrading to Eoan requires ppa-purging the beat ppa 1st
[06:29] <valorie> ooooo
[06:30] <valorie> well that sucks a bit
[06:30] <valorie> should have read that more carefully
[06:30] <valorie> I might try ppa-purging it even now and see if it helps
[06:32] <RikMills> valorie: is the system now on Eoan, but just broken?
[06:32] <valorie> yep
[06:32] <valorie> did you see the photo?
[06:33] <valorie> I can't login tho
[06:33] <RikMills> if so, you can likely just change the line in the PPA .list file to eoan
[06:33] <valorie> it never gets the keyboard info
[06:33] <valorie> I only have the term
[06:33] <valorie> I'll figure out how to edit in term
[06:35] <RikMills> sudo nano /ect/apt/source.list/kubuntu-ppa-ubuntu-backports-disco.list
[06:35] <RikMills> *etc
[06:36] <RikMills> then apt update when it says eoan obviously
[06:36] <valorie> right
[06:37] <valorie> thank you!
[06:37] <valorie> I have a cat on me at this very moment, but once I disentangle...
[06:37] <RikMills> I hope that works. maybe I should tweak the news story a bit to be clearer.
[06:38] <valorie> perhaps a box around that crucial info, or in red lettering or something
[06:48] <RikMills> updated
[06:48] <valorie> is it source.list or sources?
[06:49] <valorie> it's reporting no such file
[06:51] <valorie> yeah, sources
[06:51] <RikMills> urgh. need more coffee
[06:52] <RikMills>  /etc/apt/source.list.d/kubuntu-ppa-ubuntu-backports-disco.list
[06:52] <RikMills> note the source.list.d/ folder
[06:53] <valorie> on this computer that is also sources.list.d
[06:54] <valorie> how about the beta ppa?
[06:54] <valorie> also remove?
[06:54] <RikMills> valorie: no, change the line to say eoan
[06:54] <valorie> ok
[06:56] <valorie> but both, or just the one
[06:56] <RikMills> the 2nd line should be commented out, so doesn't actually apply, but change both anyway
[06:57] <valorie> updating
[06:57] <valorie> if this doesn't work, I'll do the other
[06:57] <RikMills> In theory it should work, but ***shrug***
[06:58] <valorie> I think it is
[06:58] <valorie> thank you, mghty magician
[06:58] <RikMills> np
[06:59] <RikMills> now you can decide to stay on the plasma beta or just ppa purge to go with pure eoan
[06:59] <valorie> still borken, damn it
[07:00] <RikMills> ??
[07:03] <valorie> just edited the beta line as well
[07:03] <valorie> now upgrading again
[07:03] <RikMills> valorie: oh, did you uncomment the line? the upgrade may have disabled it
[07:04] <valorie> really not sure
[07:05] <valorie> I'm not used to nano or working in the bare-naked terminal
[07:05] <valorie> still don't have kubuntu desktop
[07:05] <valorie> I'm about ready for bed and will probably get back to work on this tomorrow afternoon
[07:06] <valorie> seeing my youngest for his birthday tomorrow morning
[07:06] <RikMills> valorie: opps. gave you the wrong file to edit as well
[07:06] <RikMills> I really need that coffee
[07:06] <RikMills> valorie: yeah, leave it and get some sleep. can try in your morning or whatever
[07:07] <RikMills> in the meantime, I will try to break a VM in this way, then fix it ;)
[07:08] <RikMills> will be handy to test in case we get anyone else trip over this
[07:08] <valorie> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/g5Jt7yybcy/
[07:08] <valorie> output of ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[07:09] <valorie> yeah, I see two disco lines in there
[07:09] <RikMills> valorie: yeah, it is kubuntu-ppa-ubuntu-beta-disco.list that I should have told you to edit.
[07:10] <valorie> anyway, brain isn't working well enough rn
[07:10] <valorie> you have a great day
[07:10] <RikMills> sleep well
[07:10] <valorie> this will teach me to read more carefully
[07:11] <valorie> although I did the upgrade before the story was up, which was foolish
[07:12] <valorie> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EoanErmine/Beta/Kubuntu just says do-release upgrade, which I did
[07:13] <RikMills> yeah, that wasn't written with having the Plasma beta installed either. maybe I should add that caveat?
[07:14] <valorie> right, I had backports+beta which I suppose is a bit unusual
[07:17] <RikMills> maybe, but people thinking of testing the Eoan beta, are people keen enough to be more likely to have been testing the Plasma beta 1st, so should probably warn in the beta notes
[07:20] <valorie> yeah
[07:20] <valorie> I mean, it's easy to install, but I prefer to fight through first, learning along the way
[07:20] <valorie> just not tonight
[07:25] <RikMills> don't blame you
