RE: Cairo Dock v3.4.1
Ubuntu Unity 16.04 64bit

I have the ppa of "http://ppa.launchpad.net/cairo-dock-team/ppa/ubuntu xenial main" for software updates. Every time I do checks for updates with this ppa "checked" I keep getting a error message/notice. Here is what is get.

Err:13 http://ppa.launchpad.net/cairo-dock-team/ppa/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages
404 Not Found
W: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/cairo-dock-team/ppa/ubuntu xenial Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Data from such a repository can't be authenticated and is therefore potentially dangerous to use.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
E: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/cairo-dock-team/ppa/ubuntu/dists/xenial/main/binary-amd64/Packages 404 Not Found
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.


What is the status on this? What, if anything, do I need to do to fix this?

There's no ppa for xenial (yet).
Our maintainer seem to be on a long break , after years of hard work.
As the main dev hasn't pushed much code recently, your distro version should be really close to what the PPA would have contained.
