This kind of questions do no belong here. – Uri Herrera Dec 19 '11 at 2:42
@UriHerrera: Why not? Granted, it's easy enough to find the answer oneself without asking, but we have many such questions here. – Scott Severance Dec 19 '11 at 2:57
Because i believe he means that Ubuntu should include Y PPA Manager in the default installation. – Uri Herrera Dec 19 '11 at 3:09
It is just not clear what he's asking. – Uri Herrera Dec 19 '11 at 3:10

If he is asking how to add the PPA then launchpad already says how to do it and even shows what to copy/paste in the software sources. I think that even though there are other questions like this here, it might not be a good idea to start creating one question for each PPA and how to install them (There are more than 1000 PPAs). What should be asked would be how to add a ppa and what to know about them like: askubuntu.com/questions/4983/… and askubuntu.com/questions/35629/… – Luis Alvarado♦ Dec 19 '11 at 3:53

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, see the FAQ.

First, add Y PPA Manager's PPA:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/y-ppa-manager

Then, install it:

sudo apt-get install y-ppa-manager
