Finally a PPA for Ubuntu!

Post by bobzr »

Thanks so much to the devs who made available this ppa for ubuntu:
https://launchpad.net/~dwrj87/+archive/ubuntu/mmex-test

I was stuck with version 1.1.0 and now I finally have 1.2.4 on Ubuntu 15.10.
Thank you
:P

Apparently version 1.2.5 hasn't made it to this PPA.

I don't insist on having the latest version by all means, but unfortunately the application shows a pop-up each time I start it, notifying me that there's a new version - 1.2.5 and even opens the MMEX homepage when I click FINISH.

It would be better if either 1) the application didn't notify me on each app start, or 2) the PPA was updated so that I had the means to upgrade to 1.2.5

Agreed. It would be nice if the software didn't remind me every time there is an update I cannot get, except to build from scratch. Maybe every second time? :)

I've reverted latest version for Unix to 1.2.4

Anyway in options it's possible to disable automatic update check at startup.

Thanks for providing the ppa. I am trying to install from Ubuntu 15.10 and the above repository is only available for 15.04 and 14.04. When I force my apt to fetch from Vivid (trying my luck :)) and install mmex, I am getting the following error:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 mmex : Depends: libwxbase3.0-0 (>= 3.0.2) but it is not installable
        Depends: libwxgtk-webview3.0-0 (>= 3.0.2) but it is not installable
        Depends: libwxgtk3.0-0 (>= 3.0.2) but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

I guess this issue will recur for even the LTS release coming soon. Any plans to support 15.10 and above?

I did have a problem uploading the latest version to the PPA, but it has been fixed. At the moment, 14.04, 15.04, 15.10 and 16.04 are available.

@GabrielleV You can change the latest available version for Unix back to the same for Windows now. I've bought the PPA up to date again, and written a script so I can can update the PPA quite quickly
