I am trying to install ubuntu SDK but when I enter this command:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-sdk-team/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-sdk

I got an ppa error to check internet connection. So to over come this problem, I used these commands

export http_proxy=htt://username:[email protected]:port/export
sudo su  add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-sdk-team/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-sdk

But now I am getting this error: 

No passwd entry for user 'add-apt-repository

Please help me out, as I really want to work on this SDK as I want to do something in open source world and want to develop something. Thanks!

  • The command should be: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:<ppa-name>/ppa. You have an errant su in the middle. – david6 Jul 14 '13 at 11:16
  • After three days mind boggling searching with goggle, I found the actual code working .......1. u can change the mirror if u are getting the error of 403 forbidden using "sudo sed 's@http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/@http://archive.ubuntu.com/@' -i /etc/apt/sources.list" 2. then use terminal as a root using command "sudo -s" 3. then use these three command as shown = "export http_proxy=http://username:passwd@: export https_proxy=http://username:passwd@: and now add the command for the package u wand to install. thanks – Aakash Jul 18 '13 at 05:59
