Update Waterfox with the new PPA on Mint 19.1

Wednesday, June 19, 2019

The Waterfox PPA changed recently. The following let me update from 56.2.8 to 56.2.10 (between which the old PPA was removed).

First remove the old hawkeye PPA from your sources list, then:

echo "deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/hawkeye116477:/waterfox/xUbuntu_18.04/ /" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
wget -nv https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/hawkeye116477:/waterfox/xUbuntu_18.04/Release.key -O Release.key
sudo apt-key add - < Release.key
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

Note Ubuntu 18.04 = Mint 19/19.1 the 18.10 deb fails.
