In Ubuntu, Latest version updates of softwares are not available for all softwares at the time. For installing latest version of Softwares, you need to add corresponding PPA to your machine. Insome cases updated version is not working properly. so you may like to go to use same previous version. For this, you are going to uninstall the current version and tries to install the previous version. But if you trying to install, same the updated version only available to install you. It will not let you to install the previous version. In this situation, you have to remove the added PPA from your software repository.

It will be done by adding " --remove " after the add-repostiory phrase in your command to your previous added repository command.

Example 1 :

 consider the below command, which is i am going to add PPA for rhythmbox.

 sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jacob/media






So. just add " --remove " after add-apt-repository at every command. Check for this ....

sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:jacob/media


Example 2 :

Consider the below command, which is am going to add PPA for OpenShot Video Editor to install latest version


sudo add-apt-repository ppa:openshot.developers/ppa




sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:openshot.developers/ppa
