Re: [Qgis-user] GRASS support lost (again) on Ubuntu/Mint

In the educational institution where I am based, they have web filtering. Although there is no trouble in pinging keyserver.ubuntu.com, these apt-key commands always time out when attempting to access any of a number of different keyservers. I can only assume it uses a particular port, and

Re: [Qgis-user] GRASS support lost (again) on Ubuntu/Mint

We have tried to build everything on experimental ppa before we move the packages to unstable ppa (and when we move packages to unstable we send an e-mail to the QGIS packagers to rebuild their repo). Unfortunately not all UbuntuGIS packagers wait until they publish on unstable, so things like

Re: [Qgis-user] GRASS support lost (again) on Ubuntu/Mint

Isn't there possibly an option not to release packages for xenial and older until it's tested that ubuntugis works. As it only affects these older versions. I can sympathise with OPs as I have been caught many times forgetting to comment out the repos in sources.list and unexpectedly being

Re: [Qgis-user] GRASS support lost (again) on Ubuntu/Mint

I have tested on 16.04 and GRASS plugin does not work on Qgis 2.18.13 on Ubuntu Xenial with the Ubuntugis packages, just as it was reported at the top of this thread. That is Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, not any derivative like Linux Mint. The reason the newer versions work for GRASS is they don't need

Re: [Qgis-user] GRASS support lost (again) on Ubuntu/Mint

You have cited that the issue is with Ubuntugis. Ubuntugis is not hosted by Qgis, and they have therefore no direct control over the versions of packages there. Hence the packages there are causing issues. The issue with support for Xenial is not directly a Qgis responsibility. It is relying

The issue is, even the latest version of Mint is based on Xenial - you don't have the means to upgrade the base. If I have a later version of Ubuntu or Debian than Xenial I don't need to use the ubuntugis repository - problem solved. Qgis do not provide the ubuntugis repository so they
