Quickly: newer bzr on Dapper

darkness @ 21:49:20

Dapper only has bzr 0.8, but Etienne Goyer has made newer bzr packages that run on Dapper. I installed 0.11 like:

sudo apt-get install bzr=0.11-0ubuntu1

I had to force the version because (a) my /etc/apt/preferences makes it necessary, and (b) I didn’t want the newer 0.12 ones that looked like pre-releases.

The entries in my /etc/apt/sources.list:

# bzr
deb http://bazaar-vcs.org/packages/debs/ /
deb-src http://bazaar-vcs.org/packages/debs/ /

You’ll also need to put PGP key ID EEA6AD6A in your APT keyring.

  1. Thanks for blogging about that … You can get even more recent bzr package for dapper (up to and including 0.15rc2 at this time) by using the following line in your sources.list :

    deb http://bazaar-vcs.org/releases/debs/dapper ./

    This is where I post dapper package for all bzr release and release candidate. Starting with the next bzr release, I will also start posting updated edgy packages in edgy/.

    If you have questions, I am EtienneG on Freenode and hand out in #bzr.

    Cheers !
