Medibuntu Repository Now Available For Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot




Medibuntu repository now supports Ubuntu 11.10. Medibuntu (Multimedia, Entertainment & Distractions In Ubuntu) is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons, copyright, license and patents (e.g.  advanced DVD playback support, multimedia codecs etc.)

With every release, the repository is updated. A list of supported packages for Oneiric can be foundhere.

To add Medibuntu repository, run the full command below at once:

sudo wget --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/$(lsb_release -cs).list && sudo apt-get --quiet update && sudo apt-get --yes --quiet --allow-unauthenticated install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get --quiet update


Medibuntu's repository is deactivated by upgrading to a newer Ubuntu release, so you should run this command again after the release upgrade.

You can also run an additional command to add support for viewing Medibuntu packages in Ubuntu Software Center and bug reporting for crashes, if any.

sudo apt-get install app-install-data-medibuntu apport-hooks-medibuntu
