Hi all

Some of ubuntu new users have been unable to install qgis due to a minor
problem on the website: (http://www.qgis.org/wiki/Download#Ubuntu)

sudo apt-get install add-apt-repository 
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable
sudo apt-get install qgis


The user should update before install, hence:

sudo apt-get install add-apt-repository 
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install qgis

It's a very minor inconvenience for absolute beginners in Ubuntu.

Cheers
Sab
