Software Sources Regeneration

இந்தப் பதிவை தமிழில் காண, இங்கே சொடுக்கவும்.

              When we are installing new softwares in Ubuntu, sometimes we need to add the 'Other Sources' in 'Software Sources'. This will add up and finally the updating process will take a long time.

              Moreover sometimes when we are updating it will show some errors.

              Sometimes even we do some changes in 'sources.list' file.

Solution:

               Goto http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/ and choose your Country, Ubuntu Version and choose the sources and updates you needed.

                Now 3windows will appear.

Way 1:

         1. Choose "System -> Administration -> Software Sources" and the choose 'Other Software'. Click 'ADD' and copy all the lines starting from 'deb' one by one.

         2. Open the 'Terminal' and execute the lines one by one  from the 2nd window.

Way 2:

           1. Open the 'Terminal' and execute,

                             gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

         It opens the 'sources.list' file. Delete all the contents in that file. Copy the contents in the '1st window' and paste it in the 'sources.list'. Then save it and close it.

           2.Then in 'Terminal', execute the lines one by one  from the 2nd window.

             Still if you face any errors in the updating process. Try this. Change the 'Downloading From' to 'Main Server' in the software sources.
