when I upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04 all my ppa's disabled. whats the best way to re-enable working ppa in trusty(14.04)? and i used y-ppa manager to re enable but y-ppa is not working in trusty.

  • y-ppa works fine for me. Try reinstalling it? – Sparhawk Apr 07 '14 at 07:12

    Trusty is not released yet. A lot of PPAs will catch up after the release --- you should check if they have trusty version already or not, easily done in the launchpad web ppa page. – Rmano Apr 07 '14 at 15:07

worst upgrade I have gone through (13.10 to 14.04) [i386 version]. Upgrade portion before reboot went fine. After it restarted, it broke grub, wouldn't boot. Had to go through the following steps to rebuild grub from a 13.10 LiveCD; This was in VirtualBox 4.3.10 r93012 VM.

sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev && sudo mount --bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pts && sudo mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc && sudo mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys
sudo chroot /mnt
grub-install /dev/sda
grub-install --recheck /dev/sda
update-grub
exit && sudo umount /mnt/dev && sudo umount /mnt/dev/pts && sudo umount /mnt/proc && sudo umount /mnt/sys && sudo umount /mnt

then had to re-enable PPA's through "Software and Updates">Other Software and clamtk's ppa can't be found.
