I'm at my wits end trying to install the latest codeblocks. Having been to the site, it recommends:

For Ubuntu, use this PPA:

https://launchpad.net/~damien-moore/+archive/ubuntu/codeblocks-stable

http://codeblocks.org/downloads/26

Trying to figure out what the specific PPA is, was a nightmare, but I stumbled across this question/answer, which I got the line:

ppa:damien-moore/ubuntu/codeblocks-stable

https://askubuntu.com/a/764048/547409

Which I then try the line of:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:damien-moore/ubuntu/codeblocks-stable

And at first it looks like it's about to succeed:

Current stable version of Code::Blocks IDE (16.01)
More info: https://launchpad.net/~damien-moore/+archive/ubuntu/codeblocks-stable
Press [ENTER] to continue or ctrl-c to cancel adding it

But then it doesn't:

Error reading https://launchpad.net/api/1.0/~damien-moore/+archive/ubuntu: Not Found

Can someone somewhere show me the solution to this terrible user interface nightmare of how I get Lubuntu 14.04 to install the latest codeblocks?

You should drop ubuntu/ in sudo add-apt-repository ppa:damien-moore/ubuntu/codeblocks-stable and use sudo add-apt-repository ppa:damien-moore/codeblocks-stable instead.
