I have recently tried installing the Deepin Desktop Environment (DDE) in the newly-released Ubuntu 19.04... and failed. I used the command sudo add-apt-repository ppa:leaeasy/dde and got these errors:

I searched them up and i can not find any information on the internet for these errors and I'm relatively new to linux. Any help would be appreciated thank you.

    The leaeasy/dde PPA doesn’t contain packages for Ubuntu 19.04 (yet?), but just for 17.10 and 18.04. You could build all the components yourself, but that’s a cumbersome thing to do. Maybe ask the PPA owner nicely for 19.04 packages?

Go to Software and Updates, go to the "Other Software" tab and remove the repository that you just added. Then exit it and you should be able to to run "apt update" without errors.

It sucks how there's no way to install Deepin on 19.04 without some serious manual effort. Hopefully the PPA owner fixes this.
