Back in 2021, we had a video for installing Sublime Text 3 on Ubuntu. In that video, we inadvertently installed version 4 and had to back it out to install the right version. Now Mike has a license upgrade from 3 to 4 and we're going to do the upgrade on Ubuntu.
In order to do this, we install the Sublime GPG key and add the Linux Package Manager Repository to the list of sources, and then the normal commands apt update and apt full-upgrade get us upgraded.
In this case there is one Package Control package (TypeScript) that is not compatible with Sublime 4. It's not a deal-breaker for Mike and he finds and installs a replacement.
This video covers:
00:00:00 Introduction
00:02:00 Set update_check to true on Sublime User settings and relaunch to demonstrate behavior
00:03:02 Remove old license from Sublime 3 and enter Sublime 4 license
00:04:11 Follow instructions for Linux Package Manager Repository to Sublime 4
00:05:38 Run apt update to update package registry. Sublime shows as upgradable.
00:06:20 Run apt full-upgrade to update packages (including Sublime)
00:07:24 Launch Sublime and see what happens. Announces incompatible Package Control package (TypeScript)
00:08:26 Review changelog and confirm correct version and registration info
00:09:48 Find an install a replacement for outdated package in Package Control
00:10:35 Conclusion
