install instructions don't work #497

Closed withinboredom closed 1 year ago

withinboredom commented 1 year ago

Following the instructions on dqlite.io, they do not work (at least on a recent version of ubuntu).

Replication instructions:

docker run -it --rm ubuntu:latest bash
# apt install software-properties-common
# add-apt-repository -y ppa:dqlite/stable && apt install dqlite
ERROR: ppa 'dqlite/stable' not found (use --login if private)

It seems the dqlite/stable PPA is not there anymore. Not sure if there is a new official dedicated APT repository for stable releases: @stgraber or @MathieuBordere or @cole-miller might know.

Indeed, the only PPA we maintain now is ppa:dqlite/dev, which is "bleeding edge"; I don't know if a stable PPA existed in the past. Will update the homepage.

@cole-miller -- the instructions still don't work:

E: Unable to locate package dqlite
freeekanayaka commented 1 year ago

It seems that the package got renamed from dqlite to dqlite-tools, so the instruction on https://dqlite.io are not working.

It feels to me that former setup was slightly prefearrable: dqlite is a bit more obvious as package name, and ppa:dqlite/stable gives a bit more confidence for production use than ppa:dqlite/dev with the "bleeding edge" term attached to it (ppa:dqlite/stable used to have only official releases, which were copied from ppa:dqlite/dev at release time).
