Is it possible to install on Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid using the Synaptic Package Manager? I'm a little confused about what the PPA is...

Thanks
John

Hi John,

Yes, I believe it is. You just have to add the repository to your software sources. If I remember correctly it can be done in Settings > Repositories > Other sources > Add... and fill in "ppa:dolik-rce/upp" or "ppa:dolik-rce/upp-nightly".

This video explains this for Ubuntu software center, but it is very similar to Synaptic. Actually the Software sources dialogue is the same one, I believe Wink

Best regards,
Honza
