Just use Devuan repos until you understand what you are doing.  Trying to make it something that it is not . . . well  . . . what's the point of that exactly?

So latest version of obs-studio, from obs site is not compatible?

obs-studio package in Devaun repos has been modified to work?

Just curious...  before I attempt to do Head_on_a_Stick's instructions...

Or has someone else tried it already, it works?

Is it possible or safe to manually add the obs-studio source to sources.list??

Provided I can find out how / which url...

Or should I not do that?

BTW I'm trying to install latest version of obs-studio

https://obsproject.com/wiki/install-ins … stallation

I know I can install from package,  but I wanted latest version.

Follow this guide if you really need something from a PPA: https://wiki.debian.org/CreatePackageFromPPA

I can't follow that guide because they add a ppa...

sudo add-apt-repository --enable-source ppa:pogo-dev/stable

And then I get the same error.

How would a person manually add to sources.list, when I don't know the url..

Using "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:<name>"  to add a ppa repo and I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/add-apt-repository", line 95, in <module>
    sp = SoftwareProperties(options=options)
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/softwareproperties/SoftwareProperties.py", line 109, in __init__
    self.reload_sourceslist()
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/softwareproperties/SoftwareProperties.py", line 599, in reload_sourceslist
    self.distro.get_sources(self.sourceslist)

    (self.id, self.codename))
aptsources.distro.NoDistroTemplateException: Error: could not find a distribution template for Debian/beowulf

So .. do I need to edit somwhere in:

/usr/share/python-apt/templates 

somehow to get the right sources,  what do I do?
