| anon^_^ | don't have launchpad account but had a bug to report | 17:25 |
|---|---|---|
| anon^_^ | https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/torbrowser-launcher | 17:25 |
| anon^_^ | package downloads and installs but is broken | 17:26 |
| anon^_^ | torbrowser-launcher attempts to download from a PPA directory that no longer exists | 17:26 |
| anon^_^ | author Micah F Lee, micahflee nick isn't on freenode | 17:27 |
| anon^_^ | seems to be a recent change | 17:27 |
| anon^_^ | https://launchpad.net/~micahflee | 17:28 |
| anon^_^ | error log | 17:29 |
| anon^_^ | http://paste.debian.net/hidden/7be193f1/ | 17:29 |
| anon^_^ | maybe someone here knows him and can on the message | 17:31 |
| ginggs | anon^_^: I think you just need to remove that PPA from your apt sources | 17:33 |
| anon^_^ | i don't think you follow | 17:34 |
| anon^_^ | the torbrowser-launcher package is official MOTU | 17:34 |
| anon^_^ | the application once installed, then launches and attempts to download the latest torbrowser package from Micah F Lee's PPA | 17:34 |
| anon^_^ | torbrowser launcher also adds context menu launchers | 17:35 |
| anon^_^ | and those launchers check for a new torbrowser package from Micah F Lee's PPA every time you launch | 17:36 |
| anon^_^ | http://ppa.launchpad.net/micahflee/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/t/torbrower no longer exists | 17:36 |
| anon^_^ | so torbrowser-launcher package is broken | 17:37 |
| anon^_^ | http://ppa.launchpad.net/micahflee/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/t/torbrowser | 17:37 |
| ginggs | anon^_^: what does `apt-cache policy torbrowser-launcher` say? | 17:44 |
| anon^_^ | http://paste.debian.net/hidden/8b075d2d/ | 17:45 |
| ginggs | that's because someone or something has added that PPA to your sources | 17:46 |
| ginggs | i've just installed torbrowser-launcher from the archive and it is downloading from https://dist.torproject.org/ | 17:47 |
| anon^_^ | removing, re-install | 17:48 |
| ginggs | my apt-cache policy says Installed: 0.2.9-2/ Candidate: 0.2.9-2 | 17:48 |
| ginggs | but if you want / need the latest version, I suggest looking here https://github.com/micahflee | 17:49 |
| anon^_^ | it's still broken | 17:54 |
| anon^_^ | torbrowser-launcher package installs fine, creates two context menu items | 17:56 |
| anon^_^ | launch "Tor Browser Launch Settings" >> Install Torbrowser and it quits | 17:57 |
| anon^_^ | gather the same problem exists, old version points to PPA directory that no longer exists | 17:58 |
| ginggs | anon^_^: I still don't see anything adding a PPA on my system | 18:05 |
| ginggs | there's is a new version in bionic proposed you could try https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/torbrowser-launcher/0.2.9-2ubuntu1 | 18:05 |
| anon^_^ | installed package from groovy, dependencies met | 18:08 |
| anon^_^ | after install same issue | 18:08 |
| anon^_^ | it's erroring out when attempting to download and install the actual torbrowser | 18:09 |
| anon^_^ | i'm giving up on this, thanks for your time | 18:09 |
| ginggs | i've just installed 0.2.9-2ubuntu1 and it downloads from | 18:09 |
| ginggs | https://dist.torproject.org and works for me | 18:10 |
| anon^_^ | worked fine for me 2 weeks ago | 18:10 |
| anon^_^ | not now obviously | 18:10 |
| ginggs | you need to remove the package, and remove the PPA from your apt sources | 18:11 |
| ginggs | then install the one from bionic proposed | 18:11 |
| anon^_^ | i did that already | 18:17 |
| anon^_^ | same result | 18:17 |
| anon^_^ | "torbrowser-launcher" package installs fine, no issue there | 18:18 |
| anon^_^ | the issue is the launcher will not install torbrowser | 18:19 |
| ginggs | anon^_^: what does apt-cache policy say now? | 18:21 |
| ginggs | mine says Installed: 0.2.9-2ubuntu1 | 18:21 |
| anon^_^ | I purged all, then removed the PPA, then installed 0.29-2 | 18:22 |
| anon^_^ | and it only listed that under the apt-cache policy | 18:22 |
| anon^_^ | same issue when launching, it would not download and install the torbrowser package | 18:23 |
| anon^_^ | tor is installed | 18:23 |
| ginggs | you need 0.2.9-2ubuntu1 from bionic proposed | 18:23 |
| ginggs | it was only uploaded a week ago | 18:23 |
| anon^_^ | i installed the current package from groovy | 18:24 |
| ginggs | and hasn't entered the main archive | 18:24 |
| anon^_^ | dependencies met | 18:24 |
| anon^_^ | 0.3.2-14 | 18:24 |
| anon^_^ | installs fine | 18:24 |
| anon^_^ | then launch "Tor Browswer Launcher Settings" >> click "Install Torbrowser" and it errors out | 18:25 |
| anon^_^ | Error starting download | 18:25 |
| ginggs | with 0.2.9-2ubuntu1 i started torbrowser-launcher from the terminal | 18:26 |
| anon^_^ | https://aus1.torproject.org/torbrowser/update_3/release/Linux_x86_64-gcc3/x/en-US | 18:26 |
| ginggs | it downloads torbrowser10 and verifies it, and runs fine | 18:27 |
| anon^_^ | "Trying to download over Tor. Are you sure Tor is configured correctly and running?" | 18:27 |
| anon^_^ | it is | 18:27 |
| anon^_^ | that's the error received | 18:28 |
| anon^_^ | the issue might be this | 18:30 |
| anon^_^ | and i could be wrong | 18:30 |
| anon^_^ | torbrowser contains it's own tor executable i believe | 18:32 |
| anon^_^ | if you already have the 'tor' package installed and running for other uses, it might conflict | 18:33 |
| anon^_^ | yeah that's not it either | 18:37 |
| anon^_^ | i don't know at this point | 18:37 |
| anon^_^ | some conflict, not sure what broke it | 18:38 |
| ginggs | well the torbrowser-launcher package recommends the tor package | 18:57 |
| ginggs | so i ended up with both | 18:57 |
| ginggs | apt-cache policy tor | 18:57 |
| ginggs | Installed: 0.3.2.10-1 | 18:58 |
