[SOLVED] QGIS and source packages

[Merenguey]

Hi there,

I have a problem. I have recently upgraded my Linux mint 14 to 15. Therefore I have to upgrade my QGIS software (not very important but just in case).

When I run an "apt-get update", I have an error saying :

W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugis/ubun ... u/dists/[b]olivia[/b]/main/binary-amd64/Packages 404 Not Found

It looks regular because the obvious url is W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugis/ubun ... u/dists/[b]raring[/b]/main/binary-amd64/Packages 404 Not Found

I don't know why the URL is automaticly changed.

First, I thought it was because of a mistake in the sources file ("gedit /etc/apt/sources.list"). When I check I have so :

Code: Select all

deb http://packages.linuxmint.com/ olivia main upstream import
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ raring main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ raring-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ raring-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/ raring partner
deb http://packages.medibuntu.org/ raring free non-free

deb http://qgis.org/debian raring main
deb-src http://qgis.org/debian raring main

But the last two lines look OK. So, I don't know how to correct my "apt-get update" to avoid errors.


Do you have any idea ? Thank you guys. (please apologize my terrible english )

Looks like the error you get is for a PPA. That will have its repository configuration file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/. Or just use the new Software Sources (mintSources package) and edit your PPA repository configuration there. Indeed, you need to replace olivia with raring on the PPA.

Thanks for the answer. It did worked.

The mistake is to launch this command on the terminal :

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugis/ubun ... ble/ubuntu precise main

It automaticly modify the name of the distro and fail to update the sources.


See you
