fingerprint-gui in 18.04












0















I'm trying to get fingerprint scanner working but cannot even add repository. I'm new to ubuntu from fedora, maybe I'm doing something wrong, since others seems to be able do that half of year ago ...



so here is this answer: Using Fingerprint reader in 16.04



but first step:



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:fingerprint/fingerprint-gui

LSB codename: 'bionic'.
This codename isn't currently supported.
Please check your LSB information with "lsb_release -a".


and then:



lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
Release: 18.04
Codename: bionic


am I doing anything wrong?



EDIT:
so I tried to avoid add-apt-repository command.



I added file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/fingerprint.list with content



deb [arch=amd64] http://ppa.launchpad.net/fingerprint/fingerprint-gui/ubuntu bionic contrib


and then did apt update with errors:



Get:6 http://ppa.launchpad.net/fingerprint/fingerprint-gui/ubuntu bionic InRelease [15,4 kB]     
Hit:10 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security InRelease
Err:6 http://ppa.launchpad.net/fingerprint/fingerprint-gui/ubuntu bionic InRelease
The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY EFD5FA852F20733F
Reading package lists... Done
W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net/fingerprint/fingerprint-gui/ubuntu bionic InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY EFD5FA852F20733F
E: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/fingerprint/fingerprint-gui/ubuntu bionic InRelease' is not signed.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.


EDIT2: so IIUC it seems, that there is missing some public key. How can I verify, that repository gpg is OK? I'd like to do that prior to blindly adding public key using:



sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 3C962022012520A0 
sudo apt-get update

  • You should try again. The Fingerprint PPA supports bionic, so it maybe a networking issue.

  • tried that several times, same result for 3 days. Is there any diagnostic I can do?

  • ok, some backstage info: this is company laptop and someone created image for automatic install. Never used this before, but I can imagine that some hash could change in process. But changes made were rather minimal and it still should be the same ubuntu version. So if 18.04 is actually supported reardless of message, is there something what can be done, like forcing the repo or ... ?

  • Try to visit repository manually ppa.launchpad.net/fingerprint/fingerprint-gui/ubuntu/pool/main and get all bionic ( fingerprint-gui , libbsapi , libfprint ) packages from here...

  • I understand that's a way, but considering my newbie skillset and long term OS health, it would rather make repositories somehow work.
