I've been having some problems with updating recently. Whether I update using Synaptic, or apt-get, it hangs at the end, and gives various messages as at the bottom of the below apt-get update:
Ign cdrom://[Debian GNU/Linux 5.0.4 _Lenny_ - Official i386 CD Binary-1 20100131-18:53] lenny Release.gpg

Yesterday I used the Live DVD's Rescue Mode to re-install Grub(2) in the MBR of my hard drive. Today, I am surprised to see a very different /etc/apt/sources.list file that only has one line, as follows:
Code: Select alldeb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8.2.0 _Jessie_ - Official amd64 DVD Binary-1 20150906-11:13]/ jessie contrib main
I have this problem constantly and it tells me to install such and so a prog, but I do locate [prog] and it shows up in 80 places so it's obviously installed. I just have no clue how to attach the two or to set up anything in the ./config set up so it leaves me completely stuck. So what's the trick when it's already in there? Also..it says I just joined? in 2008.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've got the following problem: I just noticed that there were just very few notifications about updating the system (usually there are damn many of them in a week) So I opened the update manager and clicked on "refresh list". The following result popped up: p,li{white-space:pre-wrap;}E: Error http://ppa.launchpad.net natty/main/Sources Sources 404 Not Found First I thought, it would be just some kind of server problem, but it didn't stop. The next thing was to research the thread and I even found something. However, the solution suggested didn't work at all. (Things, which might have caused this: I installed the default software center |I'm using Kubuntu, but in this case that fact doesn't matter| and used it. To sum up:
- not able to update the system referring to the launchpad main sources for 11.04
- following error: E: Error http://ppa.launchpad.net natty/main/Sources Sources 404 Not Found It would be great if this was a common issue and I've been simply too stupid to find a proper solution. So you could just post the link.
Just leads to a list of packages. Are these taken down and installed if needed? I take it these are installed from main component right?Is this just to let people know there's a new version in main? If you didn't have "deb http://security.debian.org/ distrib/updates main", wouldn't the updates be pulled from "deb http://whatever/debian distrib main" anyway when you did an apt-get update (by logical reasoning that they'd be new?)
Or is it that you can't detect new versions directly from main and you need the updates package to point out which ones have updated versions?
When I want to update with synaptic I get this error:Ophalen van ts/Release is mislukt Unable to find expected entry 'iceweasel-5.0/source/Sources' in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Could not download all repository indexes
The repository may no longer be available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and ensure the repository address in the preferences is correct.

Just updated from Lucid to Meerkat and System>Administration no longer contains a tag for Software Sources. Has this been renamed, resited, made redundant or have I had a bad upgrade?
View 4 Replies View RelatedInstalling from sources was always complicated to me, but biggest problem is installing when some strange dependencies are "missing". Let's do it on example - I am sure it will benefit lots of users.I have a unmodified ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic) on 64 bir architecture. I download latest Grisbi sources from official web page.I didn't modify any paths to system variables...and it's usually problem with glib or gtk with all other sources I try to install.
1) Could someone help me in this particular case with missing dependencies please?
2) What every User should do when trying to install from source and some libraries are missing?How to find them? How to install them ?
went to update the software sources and it's gone from System/Preferences/Main Menu/Administration tried to add it back and I think I have the right file targeted (usr/bin/software-properties-gtk) but after adding it I can't open it from the Main Menu without root, I used to be able to open this after passwording in,get it back properly in that main menu?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI just installed Fedora 13 today, everything is working including the internet. However, when I try to get more programs it says that it cannot find the sources, and a cache reload will fix it. I wasn't sure at first what that ment, being a begginer, but I think it means going into system-refresh package lists. So I do that,ut it still wont give me the program list. I'm really confused, I come from using windows computers and I don't know what to do now, me be a little clearer, when I click on one of the catagores to find software, nothing comes up but the defalt packages that come with the system. I go into the system-Software menu, and there are no boxes cheked. I thought that this maybe to problem, so I try to cheak the top box labled without parentheses "Fedora 13 - 1386".
