I think apturl should make it easy to install from 3rd party repositories. The ability to add apt sources is one of my favorite features. apturl asks if you want to install the program, makes you enter your password, does the install, and then asks if you want to keep the repo or not. If you don't want to keep it around then it gets removed.
That's a lot of hoops you have to jump through as it is. The piece that appears to be missing to me is insight into any dependencies getting installed along with the package that is desired. A check against a list of key packages that no 3rd party repo should touch could be a good way to limit abuse. -- Disable support for adding repositories https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/139227 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
