There's this thing called pinning: http://askubuntu.com/questions/170235/how-do-i-cherry-pick-packages-from-a-ppa Manual install might work with a little luck: - First install the Ubuntu-built version of LMMS to get the dependencies - Search for LMMS in your chosen PPA, and end up on a page like this: https://launchpad.net/~dns/+archive/sound/+packages?field.name_filter=lmms - Click on the suitable package, and you'll get links to download .debs for various architectures. - Download .deb, say "sudo dpkg -i lmms_etcetera.deb" -- [email protected] http://www.mikseri.net/radioproject ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
