Linux Mint 13 Maya & Handbrake

Post by XyphoiD »

I am 100% new to Linux and don't know a thing about it. I learn quick though. I see that Handbrake is not in the Software Manager and must be installed via the Terminal. I used: sudo add-apt repository ppa:stebbins/handbrake-releases, then sudo apt-get udate, & then sudo apt-get install handbrake(None of which I understand, simply followed directions). The end of what happened read as follows. What did I do wrong?

As you can see from http://ppa.launchpad.net/stebbins/handb ... ntu/dists/ there are no packages for maya (Mint release) not pangolin (Ubuntu upstream release). You'll have to change the distro with "software sources" ("Other software" tab). I've changed pangolin to oneiric (previous Ubuntu version) and handbrake is now available.

The handbrake-releases PPA not yet indeed, but the handbrake-snapshots PPA is often updated earlier. It already has packages for Precise.

Re: Linux Mint 13 Maya & Handbrake

So if I understand it correctly I should be able to enter that line into the Terminal and it will get the PPA I need from a different location? Is there a certain command line I need to use to do this? I really don't know anything about linux at this point and this is the first time I've had to install something by doing anything other than clicking a little button that says install. My other option seems to be to downgrade my operating system. Before doing that though, I think I would just choose not to use handbrake as it seems there are other programs that could do its job. But is there is an alternate method of installing it on Maya, I would like to learn how to do it. I'm curious as to why programs that are not inside the Software Manager aren't able to be installed by clicking a button and actually require you to use the terminal like this. I don't mind doing it this way, I'm just curious because it seems less user friendly, and would likely be a reason some people would turn away from linux. I was wondering if there was a deeper purpose to doing it this way or if it is just because noone bothered creating the necessary code to make it install with just a button click.

The link I mentioned is the webpage about the PPA, the command you need to run is:

Code: Select all

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:stebbins/handbrake-snapshots
Then you get a PPA with development snapshots of Handbrake, which also contains Ubuntu Precise packages.

So I tried to use the snapshots link and this is what i came up with: Any help?

xyphoid@HAL ~ $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:stebbins/handbrake-snapshots
You are about to add the following PPA to your system:
Frequent snapshot builds of HandBrake SVN head. These are not stable releases. They are unstable (and undocumented) code which will one day lead to the next stable release of HandBrake. They are only recommended for experienced users and developers.

You also have the handbrake-releases PPA added, which does not work on 13. Please remove that one in Software Sources on the Others tab. Then running apt update should work again, refreshing the package lists to allow installing packages from the other PPA.

First off, thank you for all your help. I understand a lot more already. That last response seemed very promising, but still no luck. This is what I got this time:
(It seems to me that perhaps I should be telling it to install handbrake using a different name, but I'm unable to see another that works.)

Make sure the PPA is properly added - if not, add it again with sudo add-apt-repository ppa:stebbins/handbrake-snapshots.

@oobetimer Thanks but they don't have packages for precise on that page. I would appearently need to downgrade my system to use those and I would just opt not to use handbrake in that case. I'm also using this as a learning experience for this end of linux.

@XyphoiD: The -stable PPA not yet indeed, but -snapshots has precise packages. Also if there were no precise packages, it should complain that the PPA is not for precise when running apt update.

I have installed using handbrake-gtk_0.9.6ppa1~natty1_i386.deb and it works fine with 13 .. :wink:

@oobetimer I tried the package you suggested and got this message in the Installer: Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libdbusmenu-glib3 (>= 0.4.2)

@AlbertP If I understand it, I am using the -shapshots and all seems well, with no errors but when I give the install command something goes wrong. Should I be using a different install command? Something other than "sudo apt-get install handbrake"? This is the whole terminal entry:

LOL. So I went to try the oneric install oobetimer suggested and when the package installer ran, it said that a new release was available in the software manager. At first I figured it was refering to oneric only but decided it was worth checking. Low and behold, there it was. they have released the precise packages normally. So, I no longer need to do all this, but I am still puzzled as to what was causing my issues.
Thanks so much for all your help.

Yes. The packages that you need are handbrake-cli and handbrake-gtk, but the source package (which is displayed on the PPA page on Launchpad) is named... handbrake. That's quite confusing.

So if I understand, I would enter "sudo apt-get install handbrake-gtk"?
