Semi-apologizing for the delay in replying: tried a few options and
apparently I need to have my hand held to figure out the above
instructions. Posted my notes at
https://app.box.com/s/c36i4nmocdwkllxvkc9j2l5bxb7vegeu (PDF format)
so you/others could see what I thought I should be doing. Basically
Part 1 is using the 'without Ansible' option to install (what I'm
guessing are the) dependencies, then compiling the source code. Got an
error message which seems to say I am missing dependencies but can't
because they're not installable.
So frustration break and on to Part 2. Well, side-trip to Part 1a: saw
there's "2:31.0+fixes.202203040619.7e4ce1ba98~ubuntu22.04.1" which
seems to be what I want to install but unable to figure out how to get
to the page to download.
Now to Part 2 (my notes: "Restart here" in the black line). Install
using Ansible, then compile the source code again. And ends with pretty
much the same error.
... Am I having problems because of this:
cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mythbuntu-ubuntu-31-jammy.list
deb https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/mythbuntu/31/ubuntu/ jammy main
# deb-src https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/mythbuntu/31/ubuntu/ jammy main
No idea why the second one is commented.
Thanks!
Barry
