I'm testing PPAs, so I commonly use ppa-purge
, that restores my default versions. But I always have problem with the ppa name. What do I need to put as argument for ppa-purge
?
I always used my browser to check name on launchpad, but what about when I'm without internet and I can't start X. Org server?
For xorg-edgers I know that ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa
what about others? Let's say, I know that I have PPA of X-Updates. How do I find out the name of this PPA so I could use with ppa-purge, without using browser
So the name should be something like ppa:NAME/ppa
? How to get this NAME?
This command will list all the PPA repositories you have configured
grep ppa /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*
Alternatively, you can check the repository of a given package
apt-cache policy [package-name]
