It says it requires version 2.17, but the one in the repository is libblkid1 (2.16.2-0) as seen on [URL]... I guess almost no one else is getting this as it isnt fixed! And it is such an important program (mkfs.ext*) Should i install the one from sid's repository? If this is such a huge bug as it seemes to be, why hasnt it been fixd for more than a day (after an "aptitude upgrade", then i noticed this).
I have now almost completed my aim of using Debian and PClinuxOS on different installed hard disks. For PCLOS I use an On-Disk set of disks which I have installed on a separate hard disk which serves as a repository from Synaptic, which makes program install/remove very quick. Is it possible to do the same thing with the 5 DVD's for Debian lenny on another hard disk?
I have been trying to install Filezilla on a virtual server and my laptop. Both are running Debian 8.1 Jessie. The former is running the 4.1.5 kernel and the latter 3.16.0.
installed filezilla on the virtual server. It fails on my laptop:
Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done E: Unable to locate package filezilla
Code: Select allaptitude search filezilla and Code: Select allapt-cache search filezilla brings up nothing.
I assume I must simply add the apt repository. I have only managed to find a repo for Ubuntu at [URL] ..... I don't know the differences (if any) between packages in Ubuntu and Debian but since the repo describes itself as having been ported from Debian, I assume there are differences.
I have downloaded the filezilla package from the Filezilla site [URL] ...., but every reference I find to installing Filezilla on Debian discusses apt-get so this is my preferred option.
I'm trying to install Kamailio DEB repository. (see http://www.kamailio.org/dokuwiki/doku.php/packages:debs)
These are the steps I've done(as explained on the web site): 1. First download and add our GPG key to your apt key list: wget http://deb.kamailio.org/kamailiodebkey.gpg apt-key add kamailiodebkey.gpg
2.Then add the repository lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list file depending on the Kamailio version of your choice: deb http://deb.kamailio.org/kamailio lenny main deb-src http://deb.kamailio.org/kamailio lenny main
I want to install the nvidia drivers from the repository (they seem quite updated lately). But i hit some issues:
# aptitude install nvidia-glx The following NEW packages will be installed: libgl1-nvidia-alternatives{ab} libgl1-nvidia-glx{ab} libglx-nvidia-alternatives{a} nvidia-glx nvidia-installer-cleanup{a} nvidia-kernel-common{a} nvidia-kernel-dkms{a} nvidia-support{a} nvidia-vdpau-driver{a}
[Code]...
Since the nvidia packages are in testing i assume they can be installed, do they?
I wish to install debian on a number of boxes and have resolved on a network install. I'll first do a minimal install using the network install iso on a usb stick, then reboot and complete the installation using a local caching repo (apt-cacher) on the LAN. As a way of further minimizing bandwidth usage, I wonder if I could extract the .debs from a full installation cd and use them to populate the local repo?
I would like to install a program called VariCAD. I downloaded the install file (full file name: varicad2010-en_2.06_amd64.deb) but was wondering if one couldn't somehow do this via the repository, kind of like I did for my nvidia drivers? Is it possible?
grub editor program or graphic interface that's in a repository. i would prefer that to having to do say KGRUBeditor from source, plus i dont want to install the kde requirements for it.
I have recently installed Debian 6.0. Tried to install a program ,but I could not do it. The prog is called IOmeter (sorry, can't link it). I have also tried the " sudo apt-get install command i the terminal. It's easy to install the prog in Windows.
I just have a quick question. I was following a Snort setup guide and it told me to do apt-get install snort-mysql. I just wanted to understand the functionality of such a command where you specify a program and then do a -mysql (snort-mysql). Does this configure an SQL database for that specific application or what?
I tried to install Vlc using the terminal (terminal as root). I've used the command aptitude install vlc. Instead of installing only vlc, my gnome desktop environment was removed, gdm was removed, many more programs was removed! What's the command for installing just a single program using the command line? I was used under Ubuntu to use the command sudo apt-get install [***]
I downloaded the first CD Image as instructed at [url] and installed it on my laptop. I would like to install the "Synaptic Package Manager" and a mirror repository so that my system can update.
I have apparently installed " apt-cdrom add" and then typed "apt-get update" and I tried to install the mirror when the system was installed but as the wireless was not connected it apparently did not add the correct details.
I wanted to update by debian 6 install. The repo link in my sources.list file is of volatile, which i read some where that volatile has been discontinued. Could you please let me know the official debian 6 repository link. I have been trying to google for it but have not been successful so far.
Im not able to install the package mesa-32bit from this repository: Index of /repositories/X11:/XOrg/openSUSE_11.3. It tells me to make a huge change on architecture on many packages, plus downgrading mesa to 7.8.2 from 7.9 !
I would like to test 12.1 M5 on my real hardware, so I have special for this purpose two additional partitions (sda2 (to install milestone) and sda3 (to store installation ISO files)). I am running my stable 11.4 with Grub on sda1.
I do not like to burn DVDs just for short test of one milestone, so I was used to download DVD ISO, to unpack it to sda3 partition with all its files, then I changed Grub to boot install Linux from sda3. Installation complains there is no DVD or CD, then I chose to force installation from hard disk and select sda3 partition and select root directory "/". As I was used to from 11.4 this will start installation as it would be started from DVD.
But I think the problem has appeared since 12.1, where I get message: No repository found. (on sda3 / ), so the installation does not start.
I know this is not official way to install openSuse, but it worked before, and it was fast and easy for me, to install from hard disk.
I want to install Eclips program from "Add/Remove Application" in Administration menu!I see this message and I click on 'Enable' button and I am connect to the Internet at the same time.But Eclips program did not install.This problem is for all programs , means my "Add/Remove Application" does not work properly

I have Fedora 13 in a VPS. I cannot work with yum. I got this error: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try # yum list Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. verify its path and try again.
I am trying to configure DNS on my CentOS 5. When i am trying to install BIND using YUM, i am getting the following error.

It mentioned bug report but I don't know where that is. I'll try later.
Today I installed Fedora12 from the DVD, so this is my first contact with all of you. The last years I ran very well with gentoo, but the time for system maintenance got to big the last few times I updated the system, so I decided to change and here am I. The Problem: My system is newly installed from the DVD and I was trying to run the first update, but got the following errormassage by KPackageKit:
Code: Error Type: Error Value: Error getting repository data for installed, repository not found File : /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py, line 3125, in main() File : /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py, line 3122, in main backend.dispatcher(sys.argv[1:]) File : /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/packagekit/backend.py, line 710, in dispatcher self.dispatch_command(args[0], args[1:])
[Code]...
It occured after informing me about the amount of packages that need to be updated and a message about some dependencies that have to be newly installed. At the moment I'm a bit lost about what to do. Also I realy don't know which system-information would be useful - let me know and I will answer.
I installed Fedora 13 in my new system from DVD image. Now I want to update all repositories. I coul'nt update. error message as below: Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. verify its path and try again
