    Exclamation Ubuntu can't show added PPA

    Hi,

    I update my system and added the qBittorrent ppa but in Synaptic or Terminal I can't install the lastest package.

    Code:
    sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:hydr0g3n/qbittorrent-stable && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
    My qBittorrent is 3.0.11 running in Xubuntu Saucy 13.10 x32 bits.

    The system can't see the ppa!

    Also run:
    Code:
    sudo apt-get upgrade
    ...to actually upgrade packages.

    What version of Ubuntu do you use?

    What does the following command show:
    Code:
    apt-cache policy qbittorrent

    There is nothing wrong with your system. There is no saucy package in the ppa. They are not able to build the saucy package, go to the launchpad page of the ppa, click details and see for yourself.
    Also,https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/1061 (ticket closed 25 days ago but still no new build)

    There is another ppa with qbittorrent 3.1.3 https://launchpad.net/~anton50489/+a...o=150&start=75
    Use at your own risk (it may update some dependencies which may mess things up elsewhere) and disable it after you install qbittorrent as it has a lot of packages you probably don't want to upgrade.

    Trusty(14.04) is not that far advanced from 13.10 & does have the current. It's likely that it will work ok in 13.10.
    To try out
    go here, pick/click on arch, download the .deb
    Then r. click on the dl'ed .deb > "Open with Ubuntu Software Center" & see...
    http://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/qbittorrent

    I didn't know this problem.

    Thank you for reply.
