[Bug 1769127] Re: The Documentation at the "Ubuntu Desktop Guide/Install & remove software/Add a PPA" gives non-existent instructions

 

Should have mentioned in the above - I found this because the upgrade
process mentioned that several repositories were disabled during the
upgrade and that this could be changed in Ubuntu Software. It was
necessary for me to manually edit the contents of
/etc/apt/sources.list.d instead. Maybe there is a separate bug to be
filed on Ubuntu Software as well.

Title:
   The Documentation at the "Ubuntu Desktop Guide/Install & remove
  software/Add a PPA" gives non-existent instructions

Status in ubuntu-docs package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The Documentation at the "Ubuntu Desktop Guide/Install & remove
  software/Add a PPA" gives non-existent instructions:

  The guide for PPA addition says

  1. On the PPA's overview page, look for the heading ...... (not the point)
  2. Click the Ubuntu Software icon ..... (not the point)
  3. When Ubuntu Software launches, click Software & Updates [DOES NOT EXIST]
  4. Switch to the Other Software tab. ['OTHER SOFTWARES' TAB DOES NOT EXIST]

  Same is the issue for Adding Software Repositories, and others on the
  page.

  This is also available online at https://help.ubuntu.com/stable
  /ubuntu-help/addremove-ppa.html

  Please feel free to contact me for further info.
  I'd like it if given a chance to help edit the documentation.

  
  Thank You.
