I have one system still on 8.04 LTS and get all the time the message, that wine cannot be updated, ...

Looking around I found I should use ppa, but my system seems not to understand ppa.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa
sudo: add-apt-repository: command not found

Found the hint to add it directly into the source.list:
ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa

... gives me an error as well, ...

What is the proper procedure to add ppa functionality?

bye

Ronald

Hi,

Add the following 2 lines to your software sources:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-wine/ppa/ubuntu hardy main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-wine/ppa/ubuntu hardy main

Then add the signing key via a terminal window:

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys F9CB8DB0
