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