Is there any way to install BSD version of split in Linux in general and Debian in particular?
I need it because it has a very useful option: -n, which allows you to split a file into given number of chunks without specifying chunk size.
I did an "aptitude update && aptitude upgrade" in the terminal, and I get the following packages which want to update:
The following NEW packages will be installed:
liblzma2{a} xz-utils{a}
The following packages will be upgraded:
dpkg libsgutils2-2 libvlc2 libvlccore2 libvte-common libvte9
mozilla-plugin-vlc vlc vlc-data vlc-nox vlc-plugin-pulse

I usually just break out of this with Ctrl+c, and now every time I try to update my system, I run into this. What should I do?
I've been having several serious problems with the ancient version of glade included in squeeze. Now it is entirely unusable. I'm convinced the only way to fix this rediculous mess is to install a newer version. Guess what? testing and unstable have the exact same version as squeeze. The experimental one can't be installed because out of the 20 or so packages it needs installed to run 18 are missing. Is there a half-decent repository where I can get a new-ish version of glade? Try compiling from source and tada: My "intltool" is too old whatever that is.

I want to use apt-get to do this.
It seems to be available here: [url]
How can I do it? My current libtorrent-rasterbar package is version 0.13 (I've ran apt-get update).
I DON'T want to install anything else. The last time I added a 'sid' source to my sources.list, it installed the untested version of EVERYTHING. Due to this, I had to reinstall the OS. I don't want this to happen again.

It's cool, but a few commands weren't working - I now think that it's because Debian delivered ratpoison 1.4.3 (Feb 2008), while development has issued two more releases (the latest being 1.4.5). Should I (or should I not) install the later release?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI installed debian squeeze on an old computer that I found. (Pentium 4 3.2GHz HT) I installed from the i386 version, but now the uname command shows that its an i686. I don't find many packages that I need using apt-get. Do I need to compile each package I need from source or use dpkg to install the deb of an i386 version?
Can I use the i386 version on this computer rather than the i686 version? Will it cause a signifncant performance decreaes? (I use this computer to mostly do some reading and writing and file storage, no gaming etc.) How do I force the installer to use the i386 version?
