trouble installing packages ppa
There are lot of softwares to install which I have to type something like: -
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:smathot/cogscinl Actually this is what I have to write when I am installing Zotero on Ubuntu 14.04. The problem is that once I hit the Enter key, no progress takes place and the terminal does not show any activity for a long time and then it shows an error such as upendra@upendra-Aspire-4738Z:~$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:smathot/cogscinl Cannot add PPA: 'ppa:smathot/cogscinl'. Please check that the PPA name or format is correct. The same kind of error pops up every time I try to install a software where this 'ppa' comes. Is there something wrong with the configuration? Currently I access Internet via a proxy server of our college. |
According to https://launchpad.net/~smathot/+archive/ubuntu/cogscinl
... you can also add the repo manually to /etc/apt/source.list I.e. they are showing the right text to add : >>> Technical details about this PPA >>> deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/smathot/cogscinl/ubuntu trusty main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/smathot/cogscinl/ubuntu trusty main |
