Issues installing synapse launcher
- by George Morton
I am trying to install synapse launcher on my desktop . I am using these two commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:synapse-core/ppa
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install synapse
However I am getting an error with the second command saying
E: Some index files failed to download,
they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
I presume this has something to do with my connection to the hosting servers. But what I don't understand is the fact that synaptic is working it just seems to be something about that ppa. I don't know what I am doing wrong as the commands are widely suggested around the web, But they don't seem to work for me! I would greatly appreciate some advice on this as it is proving to be very frustrating.
Many thanks,
George
