Re: Issue with Next/Stagning ppa

[Tim]

Its not a strict dependency and will mostly work without it, however if you are not using staging then its probably best to add gnome3 ppa to ensure you get gnome-control-center 3.8 Tim On 26/09/13 19:21, HadiM wrote: I think an answer from Tim will be nice to clarify the point but I'm pretty sure gnome3 ppa is required because some packages are needed for next ppa. If it's working smoothly for you without gnome3 ppa, I may be wrong... -- HadiM On Thu, Sep 26, 2013 at 11:18 AM, Romuald TISSERAND <rtisser...@gmail.com> wrote: Ok. Regarding the ppas, your message is not in the same line as Tim previously wrote. When the Next ppa was created, the message sent by Tim was: - gnome3 for 3.8 - next for 3.10 - staging for unstable And as Gnome 3.8 is the baseline of UG 13.10, I don't really understand why we should add the Gnome3 ppa with 13.10. Could you please clarify? Thanks. On Thu, Sep 26, 2013 at 11:14 AM, HadiM <marel...@gmail.com> wrote: If you use next ppa, don't forget to also use gnome3 "normal" ppa. Some applications are still with 3.8. UG developers are working on it. You can look at staging ppa to see what are the next applications coming soon to next. For example, gnome tweak tool is still in 3.8 but in 3.10 in staging so I guess 3.10 will come soon in next. -- HadiM On Thu, Sep 26, 2013 at 11:08 AM, Romuald TISSERAND <rtisser...@gmail.com> wrote: It helped a bit HadiM, thanks. I removed the 3 gnome3 ppas, and re-installed the ubuntu-gnome-desktop meta package. I'm back in 3.8. I added the Gnome"-Next ppa. I works, I'm now running Gnome-Shell 3.10.0.1, great! Last annoying point is applications are still in 3.8 (Nautilus and Gedit for instance), new version haven't been integrated into the Next ppa yet?

Now if you want to come back to normal distribution without ppa. You can use an app called ppa-purge. You can install it with sudo apt-get install ppa-purge. Then to revert a ppa, use this: sudo ppa-purge ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-staging to remove staging ppa for example. In term of stability, I will strongly suggest you to only use gnome3 and gnome3-next ppa. staging ppa should not be used by a normal user, except if you know exactly what you're doing. Hope it helps Bye -- HadiM On Thu, Sep 26, 2013 at 9:38 AM, Romuald TISSERAND <rtisser...@gmail.com> wrote: Hi, This doesn't change anything. Right now, I've the gnome3, gnome3-next and gnome3-staging ppa. update, then dist-upgrade say everything is up to date...but my Gnome Shell is gone. All I have is a terminal. Guys, it's pretty urgent to get back a fonctionnal computer. Something should have been removed from a ppa by mistake. Not a big deal, but any fix would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. romu On Wed, Sep 25, 2013 at 1:12 PM, HadiM <marel...@gmail.com> wrote: You need to add this ppa ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3 in order to use next ppa. @developers: you should add this tip to next ppa description. -- HadiM On Wed, Sep 25, 2013 at 10:10 AM, Romuald TISSERAND <rtisser...@gmail.com> wrote: I'm using only the next ppa. Right now, if I do a dist-upgrade, gdm, gnome-shell and ubuntu-gnome-desktop are removed because of a non satisfied dependency on Mutter. But stupid as I am, I typed Y instead of no. So now, I'm trying with the staging ppa... romu -- Ubuntu-GNOME mailing list Ubuntu-GNOME@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-gnome
