I'm trying to upgrade vlc to 3.0

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:videolan/master-daily
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install vlc

The repo was added fine, as well as the update but it just says it's already in the latest version (2.2.2). Also searching vlc only list version 2.2.2. I know this question has been asked multiple times already but I can't still find a solution.

My machine is a minimal installation of Ubuntu 16.04.3.

  • 2.2.6 is the newest version. 2.2.2 maybe the newest available for 16.04. since upgradeing to 2.2.6 also requires updating dependencies – ravery Aug 23 '17 at 08:29
  • Oh, I thought it's 3.0.0 as listed here: https://launchpad.net/~videolan/+archive/ubuntu/master-daily?field.series_filter=xenial –  Aug 23 '17 at 08:42
  • hmmm, vlc list 2.2.6 as newest – ravery Aug 23 '17 at 08:45
  • I ran into some trouble when installing VLC as well. As describe in this conversation I finaly just went for snap install --classic vlc. – Biggybi Aug 23 '17 at 09:57
  • Thanks for your reply guys but I looked for alternatives and find smplayer fit my needs. It has ugly interface though. –  Aug 23 '17 at 10:15
