Just updated to the ubuntu 24.10, and updated to the latest kicad-nightly (2025-01-28), and notice all the symbol packages are missing (and a lot more).
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kicad/kicad-dev-nightly
sudo apt update
sudo apt install kicad-nightly-symbols
Error: Unable to locate package kicad-nightly-symbols
Comparing the Package files for ubuntu 24.04 and 24.10,
https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/kicad/kicad-dev-nightly/ubuntu/dists/noble/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz
http://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/kicad/kicad-dev-nightly/ubuntu/dists/oracular/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz
I notice that the 24.10 version is a lot smaller, and missing kicad-nightly-symbols (among others).
