installation/update on Ubuntu 22.04

Hi,
After installing CQRLog on Ubuntu 22.04, Im getting the following error when I try to run "apt update":

Reading package lists... Done
E: The repository 'https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/ok2cqr/ppa/ubuntu jammy Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.

Anything I can do on my end to solve this?

Thanks,
Joel, WE0DX

Did you read https://www.cqrlog.com/download ? As far as I see it does not support 22.04

BTW I got nearly similar error when trying to upgrade my RPi4 today. Actuallly apt-secure(8) manpage did not help very much.
By Googling I found that I need --allow-releaseinfo-change parameter for apt-get to get forward.

You just have to wait that Petr releases 22.04 suitable ppa, or compile Cqrlog from source by your self.

It is not very hard.
For that we need tools. All we need to is "lazarus" and "git" that will give everything else needed:
sudo apt-get install lazarus git

When that is done we just get the latest cqrlog source:
git clone https://github.com/ok2cqr/cqrlog.git

If that command is issued when being in users home directory (where the console normally opens) /home/username then a new folder was created by git named "cqrlog" ( /home/username/cqrlog ). Next we move to it:
cd cqrlog
Then we compile cqrlog source. Not rocket science just type command:
make
After compile is over we install compiled cqrlog:
sudo make install

Then it is time to start our cqrlog by typing:
cqrlog

Or starting from startup menu or desktop icon like before.
