Also, the "GNU Octave Team on Launchpad" is not the same as the Octave developers who manage this bug tracker for reporting bugs in Octave.  If you want to report problems with Octave packaging for a particular Linux distribution, contact the people who do that, not us.  We don't create or distribute those packages nor do we have any direct control over them.

From the Wiki page you referred to:

> Up to 2018, the GNU Octave Team on Launchpad actively maintained a PPA providing more up to date packages of Octave.


The emphasis is on Up to 2018.

Like the error message told you, there are no releases for Ubuntu Jammy (released in 2022) in that PPA.

Closing as invalid.

I tried to update Octave on Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS like described in here https://wiki.octave.org/Octave_for_Debian_systems. But running the 'sudo apt-add-repository ppa:octave/stable' command gives the following error:

E: The repository 'https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/octave/stable/ubuntu jammy Release' does not have a Release file.
