I am trying to install the stable ubuntu package from here https://launchpad.net/~ubuntugis/+archive/ppa/+packages on my ubuntu 11.10 server
I have added the ubuntugis stable repository to server's list of software sources with these commands
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntugis/ppa
But, apt-get install libgdal1-1.8.0 command fails to find the package. Is the ubuntu 11.10 server not supported? I am newbie with this, so i am not sure if the missing oneric (ubuntu 11.10) entries is a sign that it is supported.
Answer
GDAL 1.9 is available for Oneiric 11.10 in ubuntugis unstable. https://launchpad.net/~ubuntugis/+archive/ubuntugis-unstable?field.series_filter=oneiric
According to this email exchange from 2 Feb 2012:
stable PPA is only upgraded twice a year, or for security releases. It does not contain any oneiric packages because oneiric is new. and we do not push the packages since we don't know if they are stable since no user tested them at the moment of the upgrade. In april, the unstable-oneiric packages will be moved to stable.
