I'm running Ubuntu 16.10 and I wanted to upgrade flightgear.
I added saiarcot895's PPA as per instructions.

Code: Select all
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:saiarcot895/flightgear
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade


But I got this error:

I tried the -f install to no avail, also tried updating and upgrading. I can't uninstall flightgear or install it. When I start it it asks for the data files.
What can I do to fix this?

I don't know what is exactly the cause of this , but I remember , I have the same issue in the past and the only solution that worked for me is by bakin-up my data and uninstalling and then reinstall a fresh FG and it's dependencies packages

you need to email or PM saiarcot895 on these forums and point them to this topic...
"You get more air close to the ground," said Angalo. "I read that in a book. You get lots of air low down, and not much when you go up."
"Why not?" said Gurder.
"Dunno. It's frightened of heights, I guess."
