Hi everyone
What's the workaround or fix please?
TIA,
Steve

I removed that repo, everything is now in the INDI Stable or INDI Nightly repos.

Replied by Giles on topic ubuntu ppa repository failure

So I removed the libgphoto PPA file from /etc/apt/sources.list.d/

However, I now get the following:

giles@mini:~$ sudo apt upgrade

No apport report written because the error message indicates it's a follow-up error from a previous failure.

How to remediate this? I tried uninstalling indi-full and indi-gphoto, but reinstalling still tries to get the libgphoto repo installed again...

I removed the PPA dependency and triggered a rebuild here: code.launchpad.net/~mutlaqja/+recipe/indi-gphoto-nightly

Try to update after this from nightly. It's not yet fixed in stable until the next stable INDI is released in a couple of weeks.

Hi everyone,
I also face this issue, thank you for reporting it. Is there an other way to fix the issue then using the nightly ? is it possible to install from an older version of the PPA ?

Thank you,

" Is there an other way to fix the issue then using the nightly ?"

Hi

Yes.
If you're planning on going with indi/kstars on a regular basis, I'd recommend you build it from the source code:
indilib.org/forum/general/210-howto-buil...st-libindi-ekos.html

You don't have to be on the bleeding edge though. Using git, you can go back to any version you like. e.g. the one which you know worked for you. The other advantage is that you can pick up bug fixes quickly and help by testing the code therein.
Cheers and HTH

Hi,

for me (NUC with Ubuntu 22.04) these scripts work like a charm...

They worked well for me building a RPi OS on a Buster test system. I did not use them for my other system because I do not know how to clean up all the individual files especially for KStars and get back to a clean install when the next stable is released.

i found these instructions for removing.
sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
sudo ppa-purge ppa:mutlaqja/ppa

I have nightly in my apt repository and i get "unable to locate package Indi-full" and gsc.

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:mutlaqja/indinightly
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install indi-full kstars-bleeding gsc

Hi,

I am new here. I have been using StellarMate on my Raspberry Pi with success, but find running EKOS and KStars better on my mini pc using Ubuntu.
I recently upgraded to Jellyfish and getting the same error as above. Any news when the stable is nearer to be released?

Thanks.

Hi

Is there an update on this when the stable build will be released? EKOS and KStars works wonderfully on ubuntu on a mini pc.

Thanks.

Yep, you are right... However, since my system is so basic and I use it only to operate the telescope, I simply wipe it clean and start from scratch. I just use Lancaster's "backupOrRestore.sh" script to save Indi and Kstar preferences. github.com/rlancaste/AstroPi3
