Re: [i3] Problems getting Ubuntu repository working

[Michael Stapelberg]

http://i3wm.org/docs/repositories.html lists:

# echo "deb http://debian.sur5r.net/i3/ $(lsb_release -c -s) universe" >>
/etc/apt/sources.list

That command has to be executed. The $(lsb_release -c -s) part will be
replaced by your Ubuntu version when you do that. It seems like you have
not properly executed the command, based on the -c and -s flags showing up
in your sources.list.

Thanks. Not sure what I did before, but executing that command with sudo -i
solved the problem.

[i3] Problems getting Ubuntu repository working

[Matt Ilacqua]

Realized my version of i3 is 4.7.2 and that the sur5r repository wasn't
working for me. I'm using xubuntu 14.04 LTS

Here's what I see with apt-get update:

Ign http://debian.sur5r.net -c InRelease

Ign http://debian.sur5r.net -c Release.gpg
Ign http://debian.sur5r.net -c Release
Err http://debian.sur5r.net -c/-s) i386 Packages
  404  Not Found [IP: 217.8.49.41 80]
Err http://debian.sur5r.net -c/universe i386 Packages
  404  Not Found [IP: 217.8.49.41 80]
Ign http://debian.sur5r.net -c/-s) Translation-en_US
Ign http://debian.sur5r.net -c/-s) Translation-en
Ign http://debian.sur5r.net -c/universe Translation-en_US

Ign http://debian.sur5r.net -c/universe Translation-en

W: Failed to fetch
http://debian.sur5r.net/i3/dists/-c/-s)/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not
Found [IP: 217.8.49.41 80]

W: Failed to fetch
http://debian.sur5r.net/i3/dists/-c/universe/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not
Found [IP: 217.8.49.41 80]

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones
used instead.

And in my /etc/apt/sources.list file I have:

deb http://debian.sur5r.net/i3/  -c -s) universe

I also tried directly copying "deb http://debian.sur5r.net/i3/ $(lsb_release
-c -s) universe" right into sources.list and am still getting 404's in my
sudo apt-get update.

Any info or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
