Can't install on Ubuntu, repository is not signed

Brave Browser Desktop Support
1

I try to install Brave on fresh Ubuntu installation. I do everything according to instructions found here: https://brave-browser.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installing-brave.html#linux. I got “OK” after curl/apt-key step. Echo/tee step created brave-browser-release-eoan.list file:

deb [arch=amd64] https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/ eoan main

Update step errored:

Is it that the eoan version of Brave is not yet ready or what?

This is because you are trying to pull from an repository that doesn’t exist. I can see that your Ubuntu codename is eoan (19.10) but it seems that is yet to exist. try pulling from one of the older code names disco, cosmic [end of life], bionic (19.04, 18.10, 18.04) repo, until Brave releases one for eoan (19.10)

Having the same problem with a machine I upgraded from 19.04 to 19.10 - I removed the the old repo and re-added a new one for Eoan, but like you say, it doesn’t seem to exist yet. Given that it’s been out for more than a week now, it seems like adding support for it would be a good idea, but in the short run, possibly a note should be added to official docs?

Can you try it with this commands that in this entry: (I didnt write commands here because they are not seem properly)

Sorry, my Turkish is much worse than your English! But the commands I see farther down that thread seem to be identical to the official documentation here:


Did they work for you on Ubuntu 19.10 “Eoan Ermine” ?
