Error adding Dolphin PPA (Linux) - QuiNews - 09-28-2021

Today I tried to add ppa:dolphin-emu/ppa to my sources list using the command provided here but I get the following error:

Quote:Err:14 http://ppa.launchpad.net/dolphin-emu/ppa/ubuntu focal Release

 404  Not Found [IP: 91.189.95.85 80]
Reading package lists... Done          
E: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/dolphin-emu/ppa/ubuntu focal Release' does not have a Release file.

Since it ended in error apt doesn't consider it safe and won't enable updates from that source, thus I can't apt update and trying to download dolphin-emu-master (I want to install the latest development build) results in a "package not found" error.

I updated to Zorin OS 16 since the last time I posted (link), not sure if it's relevant.

The PPA is unofficial and not maintained by us. You'll probably have to compile Dolphin from source, there's instructions available here...

Thank you, I installed it through Flatpak though which is up-to-date enough to have some of the enhancements I was looking for in the development builds. I thought of posting about this here because that's the PPA listed on the Dolphin wiki, so it's likely more people might have this issue too.
