Launchpad repos and authentication

[MikeTheC]

Hey Folks!

Just a quick question: I'm downloading the KDE 4 nightly and was wondering if Launchpad-based repos (however that works) utilize authentication? I know the regular repos do.

If they do, having already searched and found nothing on my own, where would one find this?


Thanks in advance!

Mike

Yes, PPAs are now authenticated. This documentation (https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA#Installing%20software%20from%20a%20PPA) tells you how to find the key for a PPA and install it.
