I was just wondering how can i add a new ppa using the gnome-packagekit UI</blockquote></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Thanks Richard for answering.</div><div><br></div><div>IMHO the lack of being able to add a new ppa (even if it can be a security problem according to your words - i did have no idea about this) could be a deal braker for users that like packagekit, i explain: Linux users are generally willing to test new and rough software, and some other times a big improvement is made on the "next version" of the app... and the simplest way to do that is through a ppa. Maybe you could add the option for it in the "Software Sources" BUT in the moment that this will be done, packagekit sends a warning about the risks, just an idea :) -- this way, maybe packagekit could capture more users!</div>
<div><br></div><div>There is another point that i wasn't able to find: how can i change my download server?</div><div><br></div><div>I'm asking and suggesting all of this because it has been suggested that *maybe* packagekit + gnome-packagekit could replace Synaptics in Lubuntu, and in order to do so those two points are important for users of *buntu distros -- and Linux users in general.</div>
