i try to install on xubuntu 12.10 but on ubuntu software center afer the ppa update says “not found”, how can i solve the problem? thanx
I’ve added the ppa successfully with sudo add-apt-repository ppa:notepadqq-team/notepadqq, but then when I click on the link you posted above to install it – Ubuntu Software Center opens and I get this:
Not found
There isn’t a software package called “notepadqq” in your current software sources.
Any chance of getting this into Ubuntu Software Center?: http://developer.ubuntu.com/publish/
Thanks!
Update:
I’m getting this when running sudo apt-get update
W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/notepadqq-team/notepadqq/ubuntu/dists/quantal/main/source/Sources 404 Not Found

did you run
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install notepadqq
Just curious: is it difficult to support Ubuntu Lucid (10.04) LTS? It is a long-term support release and I suspect that a text editor doesn’t need the latest and greatest system in order to edit text.
Nope, it’s not difficult. But it requires time ;-)
So, given that I miss time for development too, I try to limit my tests to the latest Ubuntu version.
But you’re right, it should run on old LTS releases without any problem!
Hi,
I’ve made a PKGBUILD of this package for arch linux: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=51729
If you have any thoughts or objections to this, you can contact me through my info on that site. :)
Oh, and what license, if any, is this distributed under?
Cheers.
Great! The license is GPLv3… I’m going to write it somewhere here on the website too.
Regards
Can i install notepadqq also on debian squeeze ?
Can i add the same repository of natty ?
i need notepadqq version for OPENSUSE 11.4 ???
Hi, Notepadqq is still in a pre-relase status, so it’s not ready for production purposes.
Anyway, you can convert the DEB package into a RPM package using the “Alien” software.
Bye!
