Hi! I'd like to install Mate-desktop. I tried to add the repository. In
terminal I typed sudo add-apt-repository "deb
http://packages.mate-desktop.org/repo/ubuntu precise main" command and get
the following error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/add-apt-repository", line 185, in
sp = SoftwareProperties(options=options)

raise NoDistroTemplateException("Error: could not find a "
aptsources.distro.NoDistroTemplateException: Error: could not find a
distribution template
How can I solve this problem?
