I'm trying to install the latest version of Blender on my Linux Mint computer. The software manager installed an ancient version (2.69). I was advised to add this PPA to my system: https://launchpad.net/~thomas-schiex/+archive/ubuntu/blenderI followed the installation steps successfully. I also added the public key of the PPA after having an error message related to that. I ran the sudo apt-get update command.But when I launch Blender from the launchpad, I still get 2.69.How can I get the launchpad to launch a more recent version of this software?
How do I update my software after installing a PPA?

Iif you ran apt-get update and only that after you added the respository, then you have not updated Blender, rather the references to it. To upgrade Blender, typeapt-get install blenderor even (better, if installed)aptitude upgrade blenderand see if it fetches the version you expect.
