I have lots of broken PPAs that I like to get rid of, but since I have lots of PPAs in general, deleting them by hand is not an option. I want to somehow delete all broken PPAs at once. Thank you for your help!



EDIT: This is the result of sudo apt-get update | grep Failed. I think this might be a good indicator whether a PPA is broken or not.

    I don't know any general method, that can tell the difference between good and broken PPAs. But you can try sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:whatever-you-want-to-remove for each PPA that you want to get rid of.

  • @sudodus PPAs that fail when calling apt-get update shall be a good indicator IMO.

  • In that case you can use that information in a shellscript file in order to decide which PPAs to treat with add-apt-repository -r

We really don't discuss 19.04 until later this month when it's formally released. You caused these problems mostly by prematurely upgrading to a as yet unreleased version of Ubuntu.



However, to solve your problem...



is configured multiple times in /etc/apt/sources.list:50 and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/vivaldi.list:3


It tells you right there where the problem is. You have the same repository entered twice, once in sources.list line 50, and vivaldi.list line 3. View vivadi.list, and then edit sources.list and remove the duplicate entry on line 50.



The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/brightbox/ruby-ng/ubuntu disco Release' does not have a Release file.


Because you upgraded to 19.04 prematurely, some PPA's got updated to the disco release prematurely, and those don't exist yet. Edit each of these and use cosmic, or some older Ubuntu release. Easiest to do this in Software & Updates application.
