Bug Description

After I install Battery Status in Ubuntu 10.10 by pasting the command in Terminal: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:iaz/battery-status && sudo apt-get update; it warns a error as follows: 'Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/iaz/battery-status/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/source/Sources.gz 404 Not Found' and 'Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/iaz/battery-status/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found' and 'Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.'
After that, I remove Indicator applet in Panel and do a command again. The errror appear again in result.

I continue to install Battey Status with the command line 'sudo apt-get install battery-status'
It appear an error: 'Unable to locate package battery-status'

Now, what can I do to install Battery status applet in Ubuntu 10.10

Package with 0.1.1 version for Maverick has been uploaded to the same PPA repository, so now command

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:iaz/battery-status && sudo apt-get update

should works well. I guess that I can mark this bug as fixed, but let me know in comments, if some problems with PPA for Maverick still exists.

This is a bug with an external package and not with Ubuntu itself. Ubuntu does not provide a package for battery-status.
