<div>Hi All,</div> <div> </div> <div>The notes below may apply to some Xubuntu users. We should get the word out - perhaps a news story on Xubuntu.org?</div> <div> </div> <div>Jim ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Colin Watson <<a href="mailto:cjwatson@ubuntu.com">cjwatson@ubuntu.com</a>> Date: Apr 16, 2008 10:03 AM Subject: SPARC architecture moved to <a href="http://ports.ubuntu.com">ports.ubuntu.com</a> for 8.04 and beyond To: <a href="mailto:ubuntu-devel-announce@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-devel-announce@lists.ubuntu.com</a> In accordance with the technical board decision documented in <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2008-March/000400.html">https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2008-March/000400.html</a>, the SPARC architecture has been moved to <a href="http://ports.ubuntu.com">ports.ubuntu.com</a> for Ubuntu 8.04 and beyond. Users of this architecture should take care to update /etc/apt/sources.list. Old sources.list entries looked like this: deb <a href="http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/">http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/</a> gutsy main restricted ... while new entries should look like this: deb <a href="http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/">http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/</a> hardy main restricted A similar reminder goes for PowerPC users, since this architecture was moved to <a href="http://ports.ubuntu.com">ports.ubuntu.com</a> in a previous Ubuntu release. If you are still using <a href="http://archive.ubuntu.com">archive.ubuntu.com</a> on a PowerPC system, beware that this is likely to stop working soon and you should migrate to <a href="http://ports.ubuntu.com">ports.ubuntu.com</a> as above. (A similar notice will be present in the Ubuntu 8.04 release notes.)
