[Qgis-user] ubuntu 12.10 issues

[Rudi von Staden]

Hi Nicholas,

My guess would be that during the upgrade, some of your repositories were
turned off. qgis (1.74+1.75~20120320-1.1) is the version in the 12.10
ubuntu repository, but it looks like you previously installed qgis from the
master repository (1.9.0+git20121015+5afd739~precise-ubuntugis1).

If you still want to use the cutting-edge qgis version, check in your
software sources (Ubuntu Software Center > Edit > Software Sources; then
Other Software tab) for something with "http://qgis.org/debian-nightly" in
it. Check that it now reads "http://qgis.org/debian-nightly quantal", and
enable it. Then from the command line, run "sudo apt-get update && sudo
apt-get install qgis". If that still doesn't work, I'd remove qgis (sudo
apt-get remove qgis), and then try to reinstall it (sudo apt-get install
qgis).

If you'd rather revert to a more stable and tested version of qgis, the
instructions may be different...

Kind regards,
Rudi
