Problem adding PPAs. (maya instead of precise)

Postby noobs on Fri Jun 29, 2012 4:24 am

Hey guys, so each time I add a new PPA, it gets added for "Maya" instead of "Precise",so, I have to manually fix it from /etc/art/sources.list.d
Is there any way to fix this? Globally?

Thanks

This happens to me if I add it using synaptic/software sources but not on the command line with an "sudo add-apt-repository <repo name>" as well.

You can use Software Sources (in the menu) to change maya to precise.

Make sure you have all updates installed, then the bug should go away.

My installation is up to date. (Didn't do dist-upgrade just yet)
This happens to me all the time, even when I use add-apt-repository.

Yes you can change it, but it shouldn't happen. Did happen in Mint 11 but was fixed soon after release.
This is repeatable over several installs so is a bug.

Did you perhaps install the release candidate version instead of the final Mint 13?

No.
It's the final release of Mint 13, Maya, Mate.
It's not the DE though.
