Hi,

I'm trying up grade my old (2.94) installation on Ubuntu. I've ended up banging my head on the table a bit.

I've added the PPA, done my apt-get update and attempted the install. The machine tells me it is up to date, but is still running 2.94.

Digging a bit more, the repository lists in /var/lib/apt/lists show the repository files for the PPA with dates of the 18th April. Looking at the lists, none of them actually export a package (as in, "cat ppa* | grep "Package:" returns no results).

I've tried removing and re-adding the PPA (and manually removing the PPA files to be sure). Still the same problem.

Any ideas?

Cheers,
Lasiadora

It would more helpful if you shared the relevant ppa info is in your /var/lib/apt/lists

Looking at the distro directories here:

http://ppa.launchpad.net/jon-hedgerows/g...ntu/dists/

: combined with your April date on your files suggests you're still using precise/12.04. That's not getting any more updates, and I'm pretty sure it fell off the LTS list once 16.04 came out. I was in the same situation on my server. I upgraded to 16.04 fairly painlessly, I'm now getting updates and I expect to stay supported for a decent long time.

Hi,

Thanks for that - I am on 12.04. I've just kicked off the upgrade so fingers crossed.....
