[Linux] Ubuntu 9.10 karmic: no add-apt-repository - FireMan - 2009-12-10

Hi All

I've installed 9.10 minimal, then try to install xbmc following this insructions.
But, in the 1st command, I receive the following:

Code:
xbmc@MARK1:~$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc
sudo: add-apt-repository: command not found

How can I fix the add-apt-repository absence? Any package to install?

Thanks in advance.

sudo apt-get install python-software-properties

do these manually from the wiki you linked:
Adding the XBMC Repo (change jaunty to karmic)
Adding PPA Keys

python-software-properties is the secret sauce
i built a xbmcBuntu box 2 days ago (& after install) it is step1

today i needed to add a repo to my ubuntuServer
got the same error... googled it ... landed here

yet another reason i love xbmc
thanks alanwww1
