Problem adding apt repo in Ubuntu

[mikesigs]

I am trying to install DiffMerge in Ubuntu following the instructions here: https://sourcegear.com/diffmerge/webhel ... buntu.html.

I've created the sourcegear.list file with the indicated content.
I've also added the GPG key as instructed.
However when I run sudo apt-get update I get a 403 Forbidden error.

Here's the full output:

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

I'm investigating this. This will take me into tomorrow.

[mikesigs]

Thanks Beth! I appreciate the prompt reply to let me know you're looking into it.

[Beth]

Is installing from a Debian file an option for you?


Installing from the DEB:

After downloading the most recent DEB file, install DiffMerge using the following command:

sudo dpkg -i diffmerge_4.2.0.*.deb

This completely installs DiffMerge; this includes an executable in /usr/bin/diffmerge, a man page, and a menu item in the Ubuntu Application | Programming menu.

To uninstall, type the following:

sudo dpkg -r diffmerge

[mikesigs]

Thanks Beth. I don't mind doing it that way, if that's the only option. Everything else I've installed so far has been through apt though, so I was just hoping to keep it consistent. Any idea what the issue is?

[Beth]

It looks like it's a case of where we would need something specific for Ubuntu Trusty. We don't have a build particular to that version of Ubuntu.

[mikesigs]

I've since upgraded to utopic and the same problem exists.

[Beth]

Aren't the versions of Linux you're using virtual machines?

[mikesigs]

Yes. I was originally using VirtualBox + Ubuntu 14.04LTS but I was having various issues with that setup and have since switched to VMware (Player) and upgraded to Ubuntu 14.10.

Also, I haven't yet installed DiffMerge using the deb package. So if there is a fix for the apt solution, that'd still be nice to have.
