Yesterday I build the latest git, version 1.6.1.1. for Ubuntu Intrepid on my PPA. This morning when I wanted to upgrade my own machine, I ran into a small problem. It turns out Launchpad has signed my repository and in order to upgrade you’ll need to add the key to the trusted apt key list.
Posts Tagged “Ubuntu”December 10, 2008 | 2 Comments I use git quite a lot, for my plugin development and for kernel compiling. I have been creating packages of the latest version for Ubuntu for quite a while. Today I decided to make these packages available to the public by using the Launchpad PPA repository. December 1, 2008 | 5 Comments In a previous article I addressed how to compile a kernel for Ubuntu Intrepid using git and in a follow up article I explained how to compile a new release if you already compiled your own custom kernel using git. The upgrade article was written if the kernel upgrade was one where the only ABI number changed was the last one.
