KStars version on Linux/Ubuntu and updating issues

Hi all,

Quick question. I have KStars running on an Ubuntu install and previously I was able to perform an update by running the following commands:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:mutlaqja/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install indi-full kstars-bleeding

I tried this last night and I'm told that I have the latest version which is weird as the version I'm running is 3.6.3 but I can see the latest version available is 3.7.0.

Does anyone know what the issue could be? Have the update commands changed?

When you run sudo apt update do you see that it checks out ppa url?

Hello

about these 3 lines, they meant to be used to install Kstars, not update it
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:mutlaqja/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install indi-full kstars-bleeding

To update the software, you need these 2 lines
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

The "upgrade" line is meant to update the softwares.
