Do I need to do an "apt-get update" after adding a PPA?
- by Sat93
After adding a new ppa to the repository, is it necessary to update the whole database? By "whole database" I mean is it necessary to update index's of each and every packege?
If it's not necessary, then how can I update only that specific package whose ppa I have just added into the repository.
For example,
if I add an ppa by typing the following in terminal,
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tiheum/equinox
then we normally run the following command after it,
sudo apt-get update
But how can I update the only package which is associated with the above ppa, instead of updating the whole database.
