Hello Linux Gamers.
In this article I will show you how to install Urban Terror on Ubuntu 12.10, Ubuntu 12.04, Linux Mint 14 and Linux Mint 13.
Urban Terror is an open-source multiplayer and multiplatform game, based on Quake III Arena. The game is based on the ioquake3 engine modified, but does not require Quake III Arena.
How to install Urban Terror on Ubuntu 12.10, Ubuntu 12.04, Linux Mint 14 and Linux Mint 13:
Add the repository:
$ sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.ubuntugames.org ubuntugames main"
$ sudo add-apt-repository "deb-src http://archive.ubuntugames.org ubuntugames main"
Update the system:
$ sudo apt-get update
Install the game:
$ sudo apt-get install "Urban Terror"
Thanks for doing this, but… doesn’t work for me.

If I try just surfing to those URLs directly it tells me the same thing… 404 Not Found.
Um, OK, I think I see what is wrong. I’m trying this on Mint 13. Ordinarily I’d expect Ubuntu 12.04 repos to work, but it’s looking for the nonexistent directory ‘maya-getdeb’ instead of ‘precise-getdeb’. When I edited /etc/apt/sources.list.d/getdeb.list and changed ‘maya’ to ‘precise’, it worked.
