How can I add a PPA with only Ubuntu releases to a Debian machine?
I know [(thanks Jim Paris)](https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/45905/269) that I can use `add-apt-repository` on Debian by first: sudo apt-get install software-properties-common However, I still can't simply run (for example): sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nextcloud-devs/client sudo apt-get update ...be...
I know [(thanks Jim Paris)](https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/45905/269) that I can use add-apt-repository on Debian by first: sudo apt-get install software-properties-common However, I still can't simply run (for example): sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nextcloud-devs/client sudo apt-get update ...because the [distro folder for that PPA](http://ppa.launchpad.net/nextcloud-devs/client/ubuntu/dists/) only lists Ubuntu releases (artful, bionic...) not Debian releases (jessie, stretch...). So apt fails to find packages for my release. I can solve this manually (decide the most appropriate Ubuntu rleease, download the repo keys, modify /etc/apt-get/sources.list), but I'd prefer to do it from the command line. Can I pass a command-line parameter, or otherwise convince add-apt-repository to pick an Ubuntu release? Something like: sudo add-apt-repository --force-distro=artful ppa:nextcloud-devs/client

I need to install a newer version of libfmt on Debian 11. This is for CI/CD, and since fmt can be used header-only, I figure it should be ok. What's the best way to do this, with the least chance of breaking something? Should I add a newer repository to sources and use pinning to hold-back other packages? Should I use an ubuntu ppa? Should I try to upload a newer version of the debian package to a PPA?

N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default. N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details. I am a complete Linux noob, so it would be appreciated for the answers be simplified. There are a few things I have tried to fix the problem with, using ppa purge doesn't work because when I run it,
E: The repository 'https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu  \ Release' does not have a Release file.
Warning:  apt-get update failed for some reason
for the most part, I get the same error. Even when I get this to work with a different type of command, as said before I am a Linux noob, and I cannot find the name of the ppa. So I run my command like this
sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:docker
As said before I need help understanding my answers, and I still need more help learning what the post means. SYSTEM: OS: PoP!OS, Based on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. Here is a steam benchmark for more advanced info about my PC

Undoing effect of adding a Ubuntu-intended repository and updating on Debian

## tl;dr How do I fix this error on Debian
E: The repository 'https://deb.nodesource.com/node_current.x  nodistro Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
if the mistake was to run this
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:agornostal/ulauncher -y && sudo apt update
which was intended for Ubuntu? ## Full story I wanted to install [ulauncher](https://ulauncher.io/#) on a Debian 11 machine, so I looked for the instruction _Ubuntu (Debian)_ at the linked page, and run the command
sudo add-apt-repository universe -y && sudo add-apt-repository ppa:agornostal/ulauncher -y && sudo apt update && sudo apt install ulauncher
which failed, because that was for _Install via PPA (Ubuntu)_, which I hadn't read, as _Ubuntu (Debian)_ above had tricked me into thinking the instructions were common (I'm normally a ArchLinux user, so I'm not that used anymore to installing stuff on Ubuntu or Debian). The error was simply
Error: 'universe' invalid
so I tried executing
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:agornostal/ulauncher -y && sudo apt update && sudo apt install ulauncher
which failed with
E: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/agornostal/ulauncher/ubuntu  noble Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
E: The repository 'https://deb.nodesource.com/node_current.x  nodistro Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
That's when I read the instructions more carefully, discovering that on Debian I should have executed these commands
sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y gnupg
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 0xfaf1020699503176
gpg --export 0xfaf1020699503176 | sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/ulauncher-archive-keyring.gpg > /dev/null
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/ulauncher-archive-keyring.gpg] \
          http://ppa.launchpad.net/agornostal/ulauncher/ubuntu  jammy main" \
          | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ulauncher-jammy.list
sudo apt update && sudo apt install ulauncher
so I tried that, but the error was still the same as above, so I understood I needed somehow to undo my first, intended-for-Ubuntu attempt. I tried this:
sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:agornostal/ulauncher
so the first command from the Debian-specific instructions
sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y gnupg
still errors, but a bit less:
E: The repository 'https://deb.nodesource.com/node_current.x  nodistro Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
How do I fix this?

As seen from above the install fails. Unlike pogo in the example, Sile has a bunch of other packages in its repository that match the names of the dependencies so they are probably a prerequisite. However the guide didn't cover this scenario so I am stuck. Do I need to manually install every single missing dependency using this method? If there are better solutions that require less manual work I am fully open to those.

Can't add PPA repo to Linux Mint 21.1
I'm Using Linux Mint 21.1 Cinnamon, I was going to edit and add a PPA with `pkexec mintsources` or **Software Source** a GUI Linux Mint app to add and edit PPAs and so my **Software Manager** and **Update Manager** isn't working.

I'm Using Linux Mint 21.1 Cinnamon, I was going to edit and add a PPA with pkexec mintsources or **Software Source** a GUI Linux Mint app to add and edit PPAs and so my **Software Manager** and **Update Manager** isn't working. I can't open them at all. so I tried to add a PPA in the terminal then I noticed it's not working and this is the problem: :~$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable LSB codename: 'jammy'. Version of base-files: '12ubuntu4.2'. Your LSB codename isn't a valid Linux Mint codename. Please check your LSB information with "lsb_release -a". This repo belongs to this software GRASS GIS 8.2.1 and its repo for ubuntu. before I try to install GRASS GIS I did the same thing for FreeCAD and there was no problem. Based on the information above For Linux Mint it shouldn't be like that! the results below are for an Ubuntu OS but I'm using Linux Mint not Ubuntu! so I run this command and I get this: :~$ cat /etc/os-release PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS" NAME="Ubuntu" VERSION_ID="22.04" VERSION="22.04.1 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish)" VERSION_CODENAME=jammy ID=ubuntu ID_LIKE=debian HOME_URL="https://www.ubuntu.com/ " SUPPORT_URL="https://help.ubuntu.com/ " BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/ " PRIVACY_POLICY_URL="https://www.ubuntu.com/legal/terms-and-policies/privacy-policy " UBUNTU_CODENAME=jammy This is wrong and I want to know how to change these from Ubuntu to Linux Mint. My problem is these settings instead of Ubuntu must be Linux Mint, Vera, 21.1 and so on. After I ran this command inxi -Fxxxxrz to get all information about my OS, even here you can see it says No active apt repos in: :~$ inxi -Fxxxxrz System: Kernel: 5.15.0-60-generic x86_64 bits: 64

I'm going down a rabid hole and realize downloading docker-ce instead of docker.io is probably better, but was curious to see when docker.io was last updated. I believe I've tracked it down to here https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/docker.io However, I'm unsure how to tell which one it would install. The Lunar Lobster The Kinetic Kuda etc. Is there a command I can run on Linux Mint which would direct me to where my system retrieves install packages from? How would I determine which one/version of a particular package it would install?

I don't know much about packaging and it took me a a week to create a working deb for my software. Now I need a way for people to install it and I don't want to just create a download link for the deb. How can I do this? I considered a ppa, but all the resources online seem too complex for me to understand. Also, can I publish it to the apt package manager. Please help since I said, I don't know much about this.

As the title states. I'd like to know if it is possible to write a script which only shows packages which haven't been updated in X amount of time (say 6 months). The reason I'd like a script like this is to check if packages are unmaintained. I am using Fedora 36, but I reckon this would be particularly useful for people using distros that use PPAs (e.g. Ubuntu, Debian), too, since unmaintained packages may pose a security risk. Unfortunately, I do not have the skills to write such a script, but if anyone could prod me in the right direction, I'd be more than happy to try and write it myself.
